Hazelwood West Writers Week
by Writers Week is a yearly school wide event put on by the ELA Dept.
Writers Week is a school wide celebration of the writing craft. Through the written word, we share stories, lives, and ideas. We also learn from professionals who use writing in their careers, such as authors, journalists, comedians, lecturers, actors, songwriters, musicians, even business people! These adults bring valuable information to our student body about the possibilities that are out there for those who enjoy writing.
