Summer Institute

June 29 - July 24, 2009

The very same Maine Writing Project that brings you the PREP Literacy Cohort offers you an amazing professional opportunity in the form of our Summer Institute.

Would you like to improve your writing and learn more about the teaching of writing? Do you see yourself as a teacher of teachers or would you like to be? The Maine Writing Project, a site of the National Writing Project, welcomes applications for our 2009 class of Fellows. Each year we invite sixteen (16) educators to join our ranks by participating in the SI.
