Welcome to the FVWP

Polly Montgomery

The FVWP is an innovative effort between the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh College of Education and Human Services and area schools. Since 1986, we have served 1000s of teachers in Wisconsin through our Summer Institute, Writing Conferences, and graduate courses.

The Fox Valley Writing Project, an affiliate of the National Writing Project, is a proven, professional program for kindergarten through post-secondary teachers. Based on the theory of teachers teaching teachers, the FVWP brings together teachers to share their writing strategies and improve their own writing skills with a view to improving the writing skills of both teachers and students.

We believe writing is an integral part of the learning process in all subjects at all grade levels. With this in mind, our programs provide opportunities for teachers to grow as teachers of writing and as writers themselves.

The Project brings this about through its four-week intensive Summer Institute, Spring Conference, and various professional development programs throughout the school year.
