On behalf of the FHS Spoken Word Poetry class, the inaugural FHS Poet Laureate Princess Dumbuya, and the entire FHS student body, we are excited to announce the publication of the FHS Poetry Anthology. This anthology will showcase the incredible artistic talents of Franklin High School students, featuring both poetry and artwork. Our vision is to connect the student body through expressive poetry and highlight their creative capabilities.
The anthology will include a collection of poems from our Poet Laureate, student submissions organized by theme, and a cover designed through a student competition. This project aims to:
Publish a student poetry anthology
Promote interdisciplinary collaboration with the FHS art department
Engage students in literacy and authentic writing
Thanks to this grant, we will publish poetry from 30 student poets and artwork from at least one student artist. The anthology will be distributed to published students, Franklin Township Public Schools libraries, ELA classrooms, public libraries, and the Franklin Township Youth Center library. Additionally, this project will:
Boost student confidence
Provide a real-world publishing experience
Foster community engagement through a celebratory publishing party
Join us in celebrating the artistic achievements of our students and the power of poetry to bring our community together!
