SEARK Reading Council hosted their second meeting of the year January 23, 2023 at Drew Central Middle School Library. SEARK sponsored a writing contest for grades second through 12th grade. The winners of the Young Writers’ Competition were recognized and read their winning writing pieces to the audience. Students wrote an expository piece titled “An Educator Who Changed My Life”. Parents, relatives and members were on hand to celebrate the students’ accomplishments. Local winners were submitted to a state writing contest sponsored by the Arkansas Literacy Association. Winners of this event will be honored this summer at the Council Leadership Institute for the Arkansas Literacy Association.
