On Friday, April 16, Mr. Marotta's Gateway 9 Writing Workshop classes came together to recognize the excellent work created by both classes in their original short story project. In the final recitation of work, the two homeroom sections were each represented by one finalist selected by his or her homeroom classmates. Both finalists wrote ambitious multigenerational narratives, but in the very different settings of international warfare and family life.
Fittingly, the vote between these two finalists produced an exact tie, and thus we were pleased to declare both finalists as the co-winners of the Gateway 9 Short Story Competition.
Thanks to Mr. Marotta, Mrs. Shields, and the entire Gateway 9 cohort for supporting this celebration of excellence in our students' work.
