I purchased this book for WCHS: The Writing Center. It is an excellent resource for students and staff with dependents heading off to college. The examples of essays and responses are particularly helpful.

Thank you for sending the books to me promptly and in excellent condition. My children have no further excuses for not writing their essays for college. They now have all the tools they need. Thank you again.
