Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program students at Roseau School will write and create stories and spoken word that will express their feelings and experiences. Evaluation will occur through staff and student questionnaire about the experience. Select students will also be chosen for publication in the COMPAS Anthology. There will also be follow up contact with the planners to determine the successes or needs of the projects.

Measurable Outcome(s)

176 students in Roseau School creatively expressed their feeling through writing with writers Stephen Peters and Danny Solis. This experience taught them about writing and bravery. They wrote, shared and experienced what it was like to be an author. Our goals for our students were certainly met and exceeded. The artists brought a new perspective to the classroom and left students with forever writing skills and the ability to express their thoughts through writing.
