B19 Writing Project Sites and the Remaking of the American High School

With many stakeholders in education—such as legislators, district administrations, and community organizations—sharing ideas about how to remake the American high school, how do we support teacher-consultants who are teaching in high schools undergoing reform or restructuring? How can writing project sites sit at the table as local, state, or national reform initiatives are being shaped or implemented? Join us to explore the landscape of high school reform, examine practices and programs that hold promise for writing project sites, and strategize ways to ensure that writing and writing project professional development are central to high school reform initiatives.
