The students of POETICS are all about uniquely personal writing, dedicated rehearsal, and passionate performance.

Since the spring of 2022, we've written hundreds of poems, performed for hundreds of people, and been covered in the news.

Take a look at some of our poems, watch our performances, see what we’ve been learning, and check out our press.

“I loved making cute poetry. I also loved learning new types of poetry.”

Stella, 5th
“POETICS is so fun—you get to meet new people, perform, and try new things... Even if you're scared that's totally fine. Just remember you're an amazing star."

Caroline, 4th
“My favorite part of POETICS was writing poems and being me.”

Taeya, 4th
“My favorite part of POETICS was going out of my comfort zone and talking in public.”

We're busy students, so we need plenty of lead time to create something special.

But it's always worth the wait.
