NEHS is pleased to announce that Cole Ross, Chapter Advisor at Etowah High School, Woodstock, GA, has been awarded a grant of $350 to attend the National Council of Teachers of English convention in November. Ross and colleagues will be presenting a session detailing the results of his chapter’s ongoing work with a pen-pal project with local elementary feeder schools. This effort has made a measurable difference in the writing skills the elementary students; Cole writes, “Through this partnership, we have been able to build a community within literacy while also seeing growth and passion develop in both groups of students.”
