Our Published Authors!

East Prairie School is a proud participant in the State's annual Young Authors’ Conference.  This event is designed as a celebration to honor exceptional writing by students in grades K through 8, the conference provides an opportunity for these young writers to meet published authors and to hear how the authors themselves create the characters and stories that have become their books.

This literary event is sponsored by the Illinois Language and Literacy Council, in conjunction with the Illinois Reading Council, and is typically held in-person in Normal, IL - is an event.  Though the event has been canceled the past two years, Mrs. Mehr and our team of teachers have again stepped up to fill in the gap and ensure a positive and uplifting experience for our writers.

We brought the event to East Prairie and recognized all of our amazing authors! Thank you to Mrs. Mehr for creatively recognizing and celebrating our Young Authors!  Thank you to the many teachers who helped students bring their literary ideas to fruition and write for a broader audience.
