Instructions & Dates

  • Starting March 17th, all of DHS (Middle College) and VHS will have the opportunity to read an anthology (of their choice) and participating in a DUSD Anthology that will highlight both the big and little moments that Gaels and Dragons have experienced over the last year.

  • Go to the "Anthology" Tab to see what anthologies are available through the DHS Library or choose one of your own. After reading your book, fill out this FORM to obtain your first 5 hours.

  • Join us and share about a moment, realization, lesson, or whatever moves you, from the last year. The creative writing piece is based on personal experiences but can have fictionalized aspects.

  • Here are some ideas of subject and format:

      1. Moment you realized life had changed, something positive you learned about yourself, a connection you made during this time, dealing with grief, or a difficulty

      2. Length: 2 to 4 pages

      3. Format: Creative writing/ memoir

      4. Grammar and spelling are important, but this is a creative project, not a formal essay. Mrs. Spence is happy to help with any editing needs.

    • Submit your piece to this FORM.

    • Volunteer hours earned: 10 hours (5 hours for the reading response and 5 hours for the story. Yes, you must do complete parts to earn any hours).

  • This opportunity will end on September 3, 2021.

EXTENDED UNTIL OCTOBER 31st!
