Summer Institute Application
Institute Dates: May 2, June 10–14, 16 & 17
The Ozarks Writing Project mission is to provide teachers of southern Missouri a space to write, both personally and professionally, and to talk with others who want to learn more about the art and science of teaching writing. The summer institute recognizes teachers’ authority and expertise in the world of teaching and asks teachers to demonstrate what they know about teaching writing. Graduates of the summer institute are recognized as “Fellows” of the National Writing Project and the Ozarks Writing Project. Fellows who go on to become active and are encouraged to promote writing in their classrooms, their schools, and in their school districts by offering workshops and inservice programs.
