Last Friday 35 students from Oak Harbor High School attended a poetry festival in LaConner hosted by the Skagit River Poetry Foundation. Teachers Mark Strohschein and Linnell Gribble chaperoned the day of student-only poetry workshops. Schools from around Skagit Country, Whatcom Country, and OHHS participated.
