The Morehead Writing Project (MWP) is a 20-year-old federally- and state-funded professional development program whose mission is to help Eastern Kentucky public school teachers become better writers and writing teachers. We are affiliated with the National Writing Project, the Kentucky Writing Project, the Kentucky Department of Education, and Morehead State University.

At the core of the MWP is an invitational four-week Summer Institute, open to fifteen of Eastern Kentucky’s best public school teachers. All teaching methods are interactive and interdisciplinary. Additionally, the MWP provides year-round contracted and grant-funded outreach programs and teacher training to Eastern Kentucky schools in Morehead State University’s 22-county service region. All MWP programs align with Kentucky Core Content and Program of Studies curricula and the Kentucky Professional Development Standards. As a National Writing Project affiliate, MWP qualifies as an exemplary professional development provider by No Child Left Behind regulations.
