The Cultural Center of Cape Cod will host the largest of the four Massachusetts semi-final rounds in the 2015 Poetry Out Loud recitation competition. The semi-finals will feature students, each reading two poems, from Barnstable High School, Sturgis Charter Public School, Dennis-Yarmouth Regional High School, Falmouth High School, Marthas Vineyard Regional High School and 16 off-Cape high schools.

The winner will compete March 8 in Boston. Poetry Out Loud, supported by state and national arts organizations, encourages youth to learn about great poetry through memorization and performance.
