Writers in the Schools
Writers in the Schools (WITS) brings professional local writers to K-12 public school classrooms for extended creative writing residencies. Founded in 1994, the program has served over 100,000 students throughout the Puget Sound Region. WITS aims to elevate the self-expression of students as they discover and develop their authentic writing and performance voices. Through WITS, students become authors of their own lives.
