Thanks to a partnership with Bookmarks of Winston-Salem, Davidson County Schools was able to bring in NC author Megan Shepherd to area high schools April 4th and 5th. Mrs. Shepherd is a full time author from Brevard that has published 8 books with her 9th book being released in 2020. The media coordinators from Ledford, Oak Grove, North, South, Central and East hosted Shepherd in their media centers, where the author held a writer's workshop to English classes and book clubs on April 4th and 5th. Students learned about the history of young adult literature as a genre, tips for successful writing and they also participated in some writing activities using prompts. This was a great opportunity for students in our district to meet a real author in person! Students also had an opportunity to purchase her titles at a discount courtesy of Bookmarks.
