We envision a writing community for students in Denver where they can enjoy writing. More often than not, schools cannot provide a place in which creativity and discovery receive one-on-one attention. Students too often view writing as yet another task for which they will be assessed and graded. We hope to help them understand that writing is a vehicle for expression and communication, for publication and storytelling.
Eventually, Metro Denver Promotion of Letters will provide space for writing, individualized tutoring, weekend, and summer workshops, field trips for students, volunteers to assist writing teachers in their classrooms, and publication opportunities for young writers. We hope to connect a community of writers and readers, of all ages, in Denver.
