Each year, Adam Gottlieb, poet and teaching-artist, partners with Lake Park's English Department to provide all freshman students the opportunity to explore their identity through the art of performance poetry. Adam is an experienced poet and mentor who provides a safe, constructive space for all students to grow and learn.
Adam's workshops help students through the drafting process and performance preparation. As a teaching team, Lake Park recognized the effectiveness of his mentorship and community building, as Adam is able to quickly build rapport and trust with the students, and the students respond remarkably well to Adam and his process.
The Lake Park Educational Foundation has partnered with the English Department to ensure this collaborative and meaningful workshop can be offered each year to all Lake Park Freshman.
