Poetry Society of America Awards

The Poetry Society of America (PSA) offers several awards for poets, including the Four Quartets Prize, Chapbook Fellowships, and the Frost & Shelley Awards. These awards aim to recognize and support poets at various stages of their careers, from new voices to those with lifetime achievements. The Four Quartets Prize is awarded for a unified sequence of poems published in America, while the Chapbook Fellowships publish winners' work as chapbooks. The Frost Medal and Shelley Memorial Award honor lifetime and mid-career achievements in poetry, respectively. These awards provide an excellent opportunity for high school students interested in poetry to gain recognition and exposure.
