National Novel Writing Month Students create a novel in one month. A class was created, they also worked before and after school and during their lunch. The end of the month they had a reading party, which was attended by students, parents, reporters and city council members. The program increased from 115 to 250 in one year. Students overcame thier fear of writing, and the students feel like they can accomplish anything.
