SEND A BACK-TO-SCHOOL MESSAGE TO YOUR LEGISLATORS 末
This summer's outreach effort has generated letters to more than 50 members of Congress, at least two site visits by congressional staffers, and responses from legislators honoring the work of writing project sites. Please consider sending a "back-to-school" message to your legislators as part of NWP's Reach Out and Write Campaign. Share your enthusiasm for the new school year and the fresh approaches to teaching that you will bring to the classroom. Let us know when you send messages, and forward responses you receive to publicaffairs@nwp.org.
