Department Chairs:  Dr. Heather Buchanan & Shunte Duggan 

During the school year, students will continue with instruction using the English Language Arts Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE). The main implementation tool used for instruction will be McDougal Littell Literature. This textbook is aligned with the Georgia Standards of Excellence and is inclusive of the necessary performance elements needed for student mastery.

Each day, students will be exposed to a rigorous curriculum in which they will work towards gaining an enduring understanding through skills and strategies.

Students prepare rigorously for standardized tests, read supplemental books, and complete creative projects on those books this semester.
