Welcome

Welcome to the Western New York Writing Project blog.

The WNYWP is now in its 22nd year of service to education. As an affiliate of the National Writing Project, we are an organization of teachers whose mission is to support and improve the teaching of writing in our schools. We believe that writing is a foundational tool for all learning. Furthermore, we maintain that writing is basic to communication, expression and critical thinking, and therefore, it is the gateway to success in a global economy.

To support our mission and reach our goals, we offer various programs based in writing for teachers and for students. Information about these programs will be posted on this blog.

We also intend to use this site to showcase the work of the Writing Project on both the local and national level.

So we invite you to stroll through the site, click on the links, and keep your eye on us as we build our blog community.
