Synopsis

The Enter Question is the product of 826 Valencia's Young Authors' Book Project, an annual program through which we partner with a San Francisco High School to publish an anthology of student work. In 2013, young authors from San Francisco International High School worked with our volunteer tutors for a semester to write, refine, and edit this collection of essays about, in their words, "What it is like to start over in a new place."

This book was written by the 81 student members of the eleventh grade class with the support of tutors from the 826 Valencia writing center.
