[quote=Anonymous]At the private schools, one of the big writing project in junior year is a personal essay. Since it is done for class, there is lots of teaching/reading on what makes a good personal essay, multiple drafts, careful review by the English teachers, and time to polish. Most students learn not to write about the paid service trip to Costa Rica where they re-painted a school/orphanage. Not only does the process take care of the essay for the students, it gives the teachers a lot more personal detail and color to include in teacher recommendations. Lots of programs for parents to understand the process, mostly focused on not stressing out the students. [/quote]
