Linder the nurturing limbs of The Apple Orchard, ' many of the Freshmen have been able to polish and refine their writing skills in a new and computerized writing lab For half the year, Freshmen were scheduled to two additional periods of English class a week in addition to their traditional five class periods Here, in groups of reduced class numbers, students and teachers discussed composition ideas Here, they planned; they wrote and they rewrote, finally revising their papers on the Apple lie computers. Many teachers and students are excited about this new program and teachers from many of the area school systems have observed the program in operation. Here people can see students who now have an opportunity to work on their writing without the drudgerous rewriting of the past. Students can now present a clean, clear, edited version of their essays with pride. Along with this positive feeling for the writing process, however, are more tangible results. Students are writing more frequently, more enthusiastically and more prolifically on a variety of subjects. Certainly The Apple Orchard this year has produced a fine harvest of writers. 15
