Center High School Poetry Club

It's National Poetry Month. Each Wednesday, for an hour after school, Center High School students in the Poetry Club meet to read and critique their poems. By Laura Spencer

Kansas City, MO – It's National Poetry Month. Each Wednesday, for an hour after school, Center High School students in the Poetry Club meet to read and critique their poems...scrawled in journals, jotted on crumpled sheets of notebook paper. KCUR's Laura Spencer visited and brings us this look inside the classroom.

Congress just eliminated federal funding for KCUR, but public radio is for the people.
