Spring Writing Contest Winners!

The Pursuit Recognizes Four Writers In ACIT’s First School-Wide Creative Writing Contest

 

World-building, climate catastrophes, kingdoms put asunder, subtle love and bursting friendship. The Pursuit’s first creative writing contest ushered in a truly talented group of young writers. Our team of judges–made up of teachers from all walks of the classroom and one oh-so-literary administrator–found themselves pleasantly lost in every student’s submission. On behalf of The Pursuit staff and our team of dedicated judges, we thank all students who participated in our first contest and congratulate our winners!
