The Folio is Conestoga High School's student-run literary and arts magazine. We publish creative writing, poetry, visual art, and photography from students throughout the school year.
Any currently enrolled Conestoga High School student can submit work to The Folio. We welcome submissions from students in all grades and with all levels of experience.
We publish two main print issues per year (Winter and Spring), but we also feature work online throughout the year and on our podcast.
Print issues are distributed throughout the school and at special events. Past issues are also available online through our website. Contact us at foliostoga@gmail.com if you'd like a physical copy.
