In sacred notebooks students will write letters to their future selves and include their most private hopes and thoughts (in code). These will be sealed with wax and labeled “NOT TO BE OPENED UNTIL NEW YEAR’S EVE.” One year later, they will be able to revisit their notebooks and see how they have grown. Jon Bernstein is the screenwriter for Ringmaster, Beautiful, and Meet the Robinsons, and his plays include Showcase! and The Blunders. For more information, visit thepowerofthenotebook.com.
