PHS I-Search Celebration Shows Off Students' Writing, Thinking and Reasearch Skills

By Tracy Machle

All are invited to join the Piedmont High School English Department for the 9th Grade I-search Celebration and public viewing on Tuesday, May 7 at 7 p.m. in the Piedmont Middle School multipurpose room.

The projects are outstanding examples of what students are thinking about and how they convey this information to others.

These 15 to 30-plus page documents represent nine weeks or more worth of intense effort and learning about writing, researching skills, and solid reflecting about the process.

Students have also conducted interviews and observations to show real life examples about their chosen topic.

The I-search projects demonstrate the exemplary efforts of our 9th graders and their talents as writers, thinkers and researchers.

Come and explore research papers on topics ranging from social media to the organic gardening movement and the affect of music on the brain to the possibility of extra- terrestrial life.

These projects are meaningful works that deserve a larger audience than just the English classroom and all are welcome. Refreshments will be served.
