Attention all you writers, poets and artists!  Entries for the literary magazine are slowly trickling in but we need your work to make this happen this year.   Please consider submitting your poetry, short stories, art work and even nonfiction pieces to the magazine for consideration.  The more pieces we have, the better the magazine.  The envelopes along with submission forms are in your English classrooms and the library.  Fill out a submission form and submit your work now!   

Also, any entries for the cover of Hoof Notes must be submitted by Friday before we leave for the holidays!  We’ve had several submitted already, but are hoping for more.  All you artists and graphic designers, please consider submitting for our cover this year!  Never think, I won’t win, because you have a chance and there’s a $50.00 gift certificate to Meadowood Mall along with the win!  See Ms. Servilican in room 214 for more information.
