Teeming children at North Royalton Middle School. What looks like chaos will turn into 900 essays, and an awards ceremony in one more hour.
So proud of our Harding and Garfield middle-schoolers who just finished a 3-hour write-off in North Royalton with over 300 competitors from 26 schools.
They are now eating lunch while the judges score their stories. Wild to see so many excited young writers in one room. Our Lakewood kids were so poised, it was great to be there as they got ready to write.
Lakewood represents. That's two tables of Harding and two tables of Garfield in a row, getting ready.
