Storytelling, in particular, is a talent: a precious gift bequeathed to us by family or friends or teachers or mentors. The Origin Project is an in-school writing program that sprouted from the idea that the stories and people of Appalachia are national treasures and our children should celebrate their roots. Co-founded by best-selling author and film director Adriana Trigiani and education advocate and longtime friend Nancy Bolmeier Fisher, this program seeks to inspire young people to dis- cover and release their inner voices through the craft of writing about their unique origins and has expanded to include and celebrate the diverse heritage within its growing group of students. Now a five-year-old, The Origin Project has multiplied from 40 students in Big Stone Gap to more than 1,300 students in 11 schools.

We do this at each of our principals’ meetings, and it is quite moving at times and funny at others. But it really gives us a sense of how much is going on in our buildings and what good things are going on with our children and our staff.
