You have until the end of the year to submit your poems, so it is time to flex those poetry muscles and let the creativity flow!
Remind your parents, teachers, and friends about this year’s Vision+Voice Poetry Contest so that we can beat last year’s submission count. Last year, we had over 700 submissions from almost every school in ACC’s service district – you can help us beat that number!
