Description

Stories of Rock Island: A Poetry Anthology by Rock Island High School Students

Created in collaboration with Rock Island High School’s AVID Program and made possible through the Healing Illinois grant, this anthology brings together the voices of local students as they navigate themes of mental health, identity, and personal experience. Through poetry, these young writers share their stories — honest, courageous, and uniquely their own.

This is our first student anthology, and we couldn’t be more proud to share it with you.
