at BHS? WriterCoach Connection (WCC) is a rewarding experience working with
students one-on-one during class time on their writing assignments. Writer
coaches help students strengthen their writing and thinking skills by giving
them constructive feedback and building their confidence as writers. The time
commitment is only 1-2 hours, usually twice per month. This year we're coaching
all 9th and 10th graders in Community Partnerships Academy/CPA and 12th graders
in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Green</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType
