We are educators. We are writers. We are friends.
Saving the world from lame professional development while encouraging the writer in us all one word at a time.
What we believe is what we practice
Yellowstone Writers’ Project: Statement of Beliefs
We are teachers who write and writers who teach. We are professionals who seek out other professionals to create an engaged learning community.
We believe in professional collaboration that starts with human connection and challenges us to find and enact the highest potential in our students and ourselves.
We believe in teaching as a community endeavor, not an isolated activity in a single classroom but work made better through conversation, shared writing, and revision much like the act of writing itself.
We believe that writing enriches classrooms, students and teachers and that a rich engagement with writing does more and is more important than simply making individual students better writers. Writing forms communities, offers a multiplicity of perspectives, opens doors, and fosters a creative and diverse approach to ideas and cultures.
