Mission Statement
To graduate high school, continue your education, and to be successful in the career you choose, you must read and write well. My students will explore American literature, both fiction and non-fiction, while learning to analyze other people’s ideas, compare different ideas, and express thier own ideas in an intelligent and articulate way. In addition, students will be prepared and confident in taking the HSPA and SAT. My goal is to equip my students with the tools necessary to succeed in the 21st century.
The more education you have, the better you learn to think, the more worlds are open to you, the better decisions you can make, and the more options you have in your life.
