Walk-In to the Center for Writing and Reasoning during your study hall or Extra Help time! Forget to make an appointment and would like to get some feedback or talk through an assignment as you work? The Writing Center is staffed for walk-ins several periods a day (A thru F periods as well as Extra Help times). Come by and check us out in Cameron 338 (by the Tech Help Desk). If no one is there or available at the time you come by -- feel free to email Ms. Holliday or the Writing Mentors in order to set something up for another time.
Make a Specific Appointment Type via our Scheduling Page! You can request to meet directly with Ms. Holliday or with an available Writing Mentor. If you don't find availability on the Calendly page for one - try checking the other. You can also always reach out via email if you can't find something on the calendar.
The CFA Center for Writing and Reasoning supports students in grades 6-12 in the areas of writing, reading, and critical thinking across the curriculum. The Center is located in Cameron Hall room 338 and can be accessed via the Bell Quad. The Center also serves to elevate and highlight writing/ reading opportunities outside of the classroom by sponsoring contests, special speakers, and more.
The Center for Writing and Reasoning (CWR) is available to work with students on building reading and thinking skills in all areas of their study. In addition, the CWR offers one on one and small group support to middle and upper school students on writing they are working on in or out of the classroom. A teacher or student mentor is available for 30 minute or longer sessions to provide feedback guided by the writer’s questions on the piece. Students (or teachers) primarily schedule appointments during a student’s free period or during flexible community and extra help times.
The CWR also supports teachers across the curriculum by coming into the classroom to provide whole class, small group, or individualized instruction on any topic related to writing or reading. While the CWR does provide remediation at times by student or teacher request, it is not a tutoring center; it is a place for all writers and thinkers to build their skills and refine their craft. It is a space to celebrate writing and reading in all its forms. A primary goal remains to support as many community members as possible throughout the school year.
