The District Slam is a tournament-style performance opportunity where students represent their schools, perform and spark dialogue with other writers from their school district and the entire Bay Area. The event is a Team Slam, with each participating school having a team of 4-6 poets.  The District Slam event is open to schools beyond San Francisco and Oakland: schools from across the East Bay, North Bay, and Peninsula are invited to send a team to the Greater Bay Slam preliminary bout!  Click this LINK to view slam dates and sign your team up for the preliminary bouts.
