The English department is committed to students’ academic, social and emotional growth. Our learning experiences are grounded in the foundational skills of a successful life: reading, writing, speaking and listening. By exposing students to literature from diverse perspectives, both classic and current, students learn to appreciate the world around them, to connect their shared history and culture, and to reflect on how they contribute to that world. Through our work, we strive to empower students to become active readers, critical thinkers and strong communicators as they choose their own pathway to success beyond high school.
