Congratulations to the Letters about Literature Finalists

The following students have advanced to the final round of state-level judging for “Letters about Literature.” an annual reading-writing contest held by the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress, in cooperation with affiliate state centers for the book and in partnership with Target Stores.

To enter, readers in grades 4-12 write a personal letter to an author, living or dead, from any genre—fiction, nonfiction, or poetry, contemporary or classic—explaining how that author's work changed the student's way of thinking about the world or themselves. There are three competition levels: Level I for grades 4-6; Level II for grades 7- 8; and Level III, for grades 9-12. NCS students took part in Levels I and II under the guidance of the school Librarians Laurel Lennon.and Katherine Menz.

All of these NCS students are invited to an awards ceremony and luncheon at the Martin Luther King Jr. Public Library on April 30.
