So why is “The Poetry Club” so important?

So why is “The Poetry Club” so important?


• It provides a healthy social outlet for teenagers to express themselves.

• Participation helps to improve written and verbal skills, which can be applied to the scholastic setting.

• Students will be able to network with students from other schools.

• By speaking from their own thoughts and experiences, attendees will learn, share, and appreciate individual and collective differences and similarities.

• It exposes young people to the art and culture of poetry and spoken word at a level they can relate to.

• It will help to present an honest depiction of the many ethnic, social, and economical features that encompass our world.

• It helps to dispel the notion that you cannot have fun and learn at the same time!
