W.T. Clarke High School students Cassandra Cascone and Samantha Leonard were named winners in the 2022 Young Writers short story contest, Twisted Tales.
Both students who are in Karissa Sullivan’s creative writing class, entered the competition last month and were selected for publication in the Young Writers anthology. Founded in 1991, Young Writers encourages young writers to read, write and enjoy poetry, as well as creative writing, with the hope of nurturing creative talent and showcasing creativity.
“They are very proud of their hard work, and so am I,” Ms. Sullivan said. “It is lovely to see our students succeed year after year.”
The East Meadow School District congratulates both students on being included in the Young Writers anthology.
