English 10 and English 11
In English classes, frequent opportunities to engage with authentic texts allow students to deepen their understanding of the specific reading demands of a variety of texts. Explicit writing instruction and frequent opportunities for practice allow students to develop critical thinking skills and apply knowledge.
English 10 focuses on World & Ethnic Literature and expository writing, while English 11 focuses on American Literature and persuasive writing.
