Overview of Middle School Creative Writing
In Creative Writing the students will learn about the writing process and various genres through reading and writing activities. They will have the opportunity to participate as members of a writing community, offering feedback to peers throughout the writing process. They will also participate in various performances, such as open-mic nights. The students will work collaboratively to produce a school newspaper as well as entering work to contest and publications individually.

Meet the Teacher-Asia Hester
|
I was born and raised in Franklin County, Alabama where I attended a small school for K- 8th grade. I moved to Huntsville in the early 2000s and attended Lee High School where I participated in the Creative Writing Magnet. I have been involved in AAA as a parent/volunteer since 2009.
I have a strong love for the Arts and I have a strong belief that the magnet programs at AAA can take our students' education to the next level. I am a certified Arts Integration Specialist, and am committed to furthering my education and learning more about the arts, diversity, and inclusion in education. |

Meet the Teacher- Alexandra Gibilante

I am originally from Pennsylvania, and I have spent the last six years living in Virginia teaching seventh and eighth grade English. Recently, due to my fiancé's job transfer, we moved to Huntsville to embark on a new and exciting adventure. I am delighted to be joining the AAA family this school year, and I am eager to inspire the learning and academic growth of the seventh grade students.
