Youth Poetry


CPITS LIT (Laureates in Training)

The annual "Laureates in Training" program was developed to support CPITS commitment to identify the next generation of leaders in the poetry community. Poet-teachers from California counties served by CPITS nominate exceptional students who regularly engage in the poetry-writing process and contribute to their literary community. Each county selects a student to represent three grade categories: elementary, middle and high school as the County Wide "Laureate in Training." The CPITS Board of Directors then select a statewide student representative in each of these categories.
