Poetry Out Loud Contest and website

Poetry Out Loud
What is it?  A contest
When is it? Feb. 14 after school at West Salem High School
What do I do to prepare? 
Read through 10 poems on the website and choose 3.
Write why you chose those three.
Now narrow it down to two.
Memorize those two poems in order to compete.
Or just memorize one poem and be a participant.
Why?  
There is scholarship money available – and there might be some extra creditJ

Most importantly:
 It will be a positive experience that you will want to repeat each year.
