To commemorate National Poetry Month in April, the Lehigh Valley Press newspapers and web sites present the 10th annual Student Poetry Project.

Please see Page B1 and B3 and the Focus pages online for poems selected in the Elementary School, Middle School and High School categories.

Students whose poems are published on this page read their poems and were interviewed April 20 on "Lehigh Valley Arts Salon," WDIY, Lehigh Valley Community Radio, 88.1 FM, wdiy.org.

The Student Poetry Project adjudication committee met March 16 and read approximately 125 poems submitted by students from the Lehigh Valley.

The Lehigh Valley Press thanks students who submitted poems, as well as their teachers, parents and guardians for participating in the 10th annual Student Poetry Project.
