Update: Day 16

We have Poetry Slams in our schools, but Poetry Jam Open Mic Slam sounded very exiting and unique, so the spiciness attracted us to witness it on the evening of Feb. 7 at the Weston High School. There was also a basketball game going on between WHS and Norwalk HS along with this program. The Open Slam was hosted by Teen Peaceworks - a club in the school with the theme "No excuse for Abuse". The program basically had poem recitation by a Teacher writer and students and the exciting part was the student groups singing Karaoke. Mr. Sonam Wangchen - a Bhutanese student,  also sang an English Song and pretty impressed the crowd to receive an standing ovation and applause. Weston HS won the basketball match. There was so much of energy and enthusiasm in the auditorium as the competition was neck to neck. It was fun and an engrossing night.
