English Festival is an optional, competitive activity for 7th and 8th graders. This is a rare type of activity for teens that aims at celebrating literature and authors. There is a recommendation process for students that are interested, as there are only so many spots available. Ultimately, students are required to read seven novels throughout the school year. These novels are chosen by the Youngstown State University English Festival Committee members. In April, students will attend YSU and compete against surrounding schools regarding their knowledge of the books.
