Student Voices

We help students find and use their voices.

Rowland Hall students work hard on their writing skills and our faculty provide expert guidance as they grow into confident wordsmiths. We love to see Winged Lions making their perspectives heard in the larger community. The below published student pieces come from a mix of internships, individual passions and pursuits, and an English 11 and 12 argumentative writing unit where students pick topics they feel strongly about and craft—and are encouraged to submit—letters/op-eds to news outlets. Read more student work.
