On Nov. 19, our school’s art and literary magazine club, Trumpet, hosted an after-school poetry café with Nassau County Poet Laureate Alan Semerdjian. It was a full house with over 50 students enjoying poetry games, art sketches and an open mic session. Mr. Semerdjian captivated the audience with his poetry, guitar and songs, as well as a thought-provoking question-and-answer session. The afternoon was filled with creativity, artful expression and poetry fun.
Ms. Poulos, adviser of the Trumpet, expressed gratitude to Mr. Semerdjian, who is also an English teacher at Herricks High School, for providing such an inspiring and memorable afternoon for our students.
