Bobcat Young Writers Academy

UC Merced Writing Project: Bobcat Young Writers Academy Bobcat Young Writers Academy offers students the opportunity to develop their talents as writers.

With all of our Bobcat young writers back in school, we are hoping their positive experience in our Academy this past summer supports their continued writing instruction.

Thanks to all parents who supported their children's development as writers by registering them in our 2017 Bobcat Young Writers Academy. Writing is power! It builds thinkers, develops language/vocabulary, and creates a sense of a reader's needs. Solid composing skills ensure success in any discipline. Hope to see you next year.
