Keystone students dominate poetry competition

This is amazing: Nearly half of the outstanding poets selected for the Young Pegasus poetry collection are from Keystone.

The San Antonio Public Library’s competition has more than 90 years of history celebrating the talents of the city’s young writers. A panel of independent judges reviews the work of poets 18 years and younger for publication in the annual Young Pegasus Anthology.
