On November 3, 2009, all Arcadia students spent the day creating a piece of writing on a given prompt. After discussing the prompt, the students set out to produce an essay going through the entire writing process which included a prewrite, a first draft, revision, editing and a final product.
The papers were then collected and scored by a team of employee ranging from grades K-12. They spent the day reading each paper and evaluating the writing on six different writing traits. The papers were then shared with parents during conferences.
