The Tucson non-profit Literacy Connects sponsors a group of performers and musicians called “Stories That Soar!”. They help young writers realize the power and potential of bringing their stories to life, for the stage, video, and radio. We are presenting these stories on the first Thursday of every month here on Arizona Spotlight. A new edition of “Stories That Soar!”, written by a 4th grade student, asks what might happen if we pause, look up, and truly notice the world around us.

- This month, Arizona Spotlight will begin to feature a series of essays written by last year’s graduating class from Tucson High Magnet School. These essays recount the harrowing experiences they shared as the first generation of students to undergo active shooter drills since kindergarten. And, the isolation and uncertainty they experienced spending four years of high school under the threat of the COVID-19 pandemic. This essay series will culminate in a live theatrical experience at the beginning of March called, "The Class of 2024."
