at BHS? WriterCoach Connection (WCC) is a rewarding experience working
one-on-one with students at every level of writing ability on their writing
assignments. In partnership with teachers, trained writer coaches help students
strengthen their writing and thinking skills by giving them constructive
feedback, challenging them to think more deeply, and building their confidence
as writers. The time commitment is only 1-2 hours, usually twice per month,
during the school day. This year we're coaching 9th and 10th graders in AMPS;
10th graders in CAS; and 11th graders in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName
