Co-hosted by the Maplewood Memorial Library and CTK College Coach, the inaugural SOMA Story Slam celebrates graduating high school seniors as they transition to college. Are you a senior and proud of your college admissions essay? Now's your chance to bask in glory and inspire younger students at the same time!

Christina Taber-Kewene, Rachel Fisher, and Stephanie Nasteff-Pilato, the essay writing coaches from CTK College Coach will provide a brief introduction on how to write the college essay, and then selected seniors will read their college essays for the community. High school freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and parents are especially encouraged to attend and cheer on these scholars.

This event is free and open to the public.

To submit an essay for consideration, complete the form linked here by Tuesday, May 25.
