Growing Through Change

High school is known to be a period of change. The transition to adulthood is paved with struggle. However, not all of us can say that our world literally “changed” as we were finding ourselves. Yet, these young writers experienced this first hand: a new country, a new language, a new life. In Growing Through Change, the student-authors at Morris Academy for Collaborative Studies share their life experiences and opinions in a collection of narratives and Op-Eds. Struggle, growth, reflection...all through their eyes, in their words. Take this invitation to learn about how a community garden brought back memories of a past life. Read how these authors have faced the obstacles fate has put in their path. Feel how they stand up against hate crimes. All in a new language that they are making their own.
