Our 2026 Celebration


In April 1996 the Academy of American Poets set into motion the
first National Poetry Month, a celebration to highlight the joy
 and satisfaction of creating poems to share with others.
Indeed, we know that #PoetryMatters!  

Back in April, with ideas and talent from Mrs. Mikeworth's
5th grade volunteers, Parkside
had its very own Poet-Tree
Placed outside the library, it was an invitation for 
interested writers from across the building to 
create poems they'd be willing to share. 

We welcome you to visit The Reading Room to see posts of
poetry boys and girls penned to "flex their muscles"
and come up with verse to put down on paper. 

We know many youth really are poets
but they don't realize it....yet.
