" We sincerely appreciate the chance to participate in your fine contest. My students are so proud of their essays (and the chance to be "published authors") P.S. I've been entering students in your contest for 10 years!!! THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING YOUNG AUTHORS!!! "
---- Carol Martin-Gregory" Your program is excellent and my students' enjoy the recognition for their hard work. Your publications are of impeccable quality and I love showing my students' work off throughout the community. Keep up the good work. "
---- Dr. Wanda D. Dixon" Thank you so much for running the poetry contests. It gives my students super opportunities for real publishing. Also, thank you for the free book. "
---- Greg Crow" Thank you for selecting my students' work. You have no idea what a big deal this is. Some of my children cry, others dance, and some just sit and smile. Thank you! "
---- Raimie Manch" My students become extremely motivated to write in hopes to see their work published in a book. This opportunity is inspiring to all! Thank you! "
---- Susan Keehner" As previously mentioned, these writing contests are great motivational tools for my students! The thought of having a poem published for everyone to see is a definite lure, especially for those eighth graders that want to pursue careers as journalists or writers in the future. Thanks again for making writing enjoyable for these up and coming authors. "
---- Anona Hemming, Ed.S" Thank you and your organization for your support of student endeavors. The look of pride on my students' faces when they found out they were accepted has been one of those "special" teaching moments this year. "
---- Joseph T. Vaine" We were very excited that many of our students who entered the contest were chosen for publication. Thank you for adding flavor to education. "
---- Velma Small" Thank you so much for allowing our writers' club the opportunity to express themselves and then be heard. An outlet such as yours is a wonderful resource for young authors to accomplish their goal. "
---- Ellen Glasser and Ron Parmegiani" I have been entering my students' work for the past two years, and I think this is a great outlet for student writing! Thanks so much for considering the work of my students â they have never entered their work in anything before and this lets them know that it is possible to see your name in print. "
