English Department

Objective

The English Department’s objective is to challenge students with a college preparatory curriculum throughout the four years of instruction.

Students are expected to master the following skills: critical reading, analytical and expository writing, thesis statements, organization, editing, research procedures, vocabulary development, grammar and usage, and PSAT and SAT preparation. The core values of spirituality, respect, and leadership comprise the foundation for the school as a whole and for all English department activities, both academic and extracurricular.
