English

  • Overview

    The English Department offers a strong program of wide ranging literature from diverse voices that act as both windows to and mirrors of students’ own lives. With the help of regular, meaningful feedback, we intend for students to accomplish the following in all of our offerings:
    *Learn to read with greater insight, empathy, and pleasure through a broad range of genres and formats including novels, non-fiction, poetry, graphic novels, articles, short stories, plays, and mixed media.
    *Read texts that reflect a more complete and nuanced understanding of what is considered “canon.”
    Engage with texts in multiple models including whole class texts and small group lit circles.
    *Experience texts that reflect both characters and authors of diverse identities; that reflect students’ own experiences; and that allow students to see, know, understand, and empathize with people, cultures, and experiences different from their own.Read More
