About Us
Writing Wizards is a student-run organization based in Union County, New Jersey. We are dedicated to honing writing skills and teaching upper elementary students (grades 3-8) fundamentals of writing. Through creative writing exercises and engaging lessons, our goal is to inspire the same love for writing within our students that was given to us by our teachers!
