To earn the WPCTE School Literacy Achievement Award, schools must participate in both the English Festival and the Flash Fiction Contest during one calendar year. For this year's award, that means the 2024 English Festival and the 2024 Flash Fiction Contest. Since the events are in the spring and fall, this award considers two separate school years to focus on the continuity of providing students with additional literacy opportunities outside of the regular school curriculum.
The WPCTE School Literacy Achievement Award will be presented at the Spring WPCTE Conference on Wednesday, March 19, 2025, at Slippery Rock University.
