West Simsbury Resident Wins "Poetry Out Loud" at Renbrook School

West Simsbury Resident Wins "Poetry Out Loud" at Renbrook School

On February 5, Renbrook School ninth graders participated in "Poetry Out Loud", a nationwide poetry recitation contest for high school students. The students chose their poems before winter vacation from the Poetry Out Loud Website, memorized them, analyzed them, and recited them at Renbrook School before a panel of judges. Students are judged on accuracy, physical presence, voice and articulation, dramatic appropriateness, evidence of understanding, and overall performance. This year our school winner, Nicole R. '18 of West Simsbury will move on to the next round of competition. Runner up: Aubrey B. '18 of Burlington
