Recognizing Excellence in Art and Literary Magazines (REALM)
Sponsored by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE)
The mission of NCTE's REALM program is to publicly recognize excellent literary magazines produced by students with the support of their teachers. REALM is designed to encourage all schools to develop literary magazines that celebrate the art and craft of writing. Your magazine is a fine example of this mission in action, and the REALM committee looks forward to seeing future publications from your school.
