Kashmere Gardens Student Poetry Performance at Houston Public Library

Our Student Poetry Reading featured original poetry from 20 Kashmere Gardens Elementary 3rd through 5th Grade students. This unique opportunity was the result of a partnership between the Houston Public Library (HPL), Writers In the Schools (WITS) and Kashmere Gardens Elementary. Student performers took part in a series of Young Writers Workshops developed by WITS.
