Where Dreams Take You
Writing in the Schools Student Anthology 2025-2026
By Red Hen Press
Created in 2003. Writing in the Schools is an outreach program that actively facilitates the practice of creative writing and cultivates an appreciation for poetry in Greator Los Angles and Pasadena classrooms. Writing in the Schools give students access to modern and contemporary poetry and to the published poets who are their workshop leaders.
The poems featured in this book are the product of one school year of workshops at a variety of grade levels. They are the result of the hard work of participating authors, teachers, and students, and the book speaks to the positive effects of literature within our classrooms.
