DCSS students celebrate success at TomeCon | Douglasville Sentinel

Students explored topics including reading, writing, technology, engineering, art and music.

Tracy Scaglione, media specialist at Dorsett Shoals Elementary, highlighted the value TomeCon brings to students.

“Attending TomeCon is a chance for students to meet famous authors, attend workshops, and dive deeper into their love of literature,” she said. “It’s a unique opportunity to connect with a community of passionate readers and writers and for students to continue to grow their love for reading.”

Authors from around the world engaged with students during the conference, providing them with invaluable insights about the world of literature. Additionally, students received awards for their participation in Tome Competitions throughout the year.

TomeCon was held at The Classic Center in Athens, Georgia on March 12.
