English

The English Department is comprised of a variety of courses that encourage students to gain an appreciation for literature and the English language. These courses adhere to the state standards, focus on both critical reading and writing skills, and prepare students for the NJSLA, SAT, ACT and AP tests. In addition, diverse elective courses are available to all students who are interested in English beyond the four-year state requirement. For twelfth graders interested in college credits, we offer a dual enrollment English 12 CP course. The literature incorporated into our curriculum encompasses a variety of genres, ranging from the classics to contemporary writings. Students are able to take a virtual trip around the world through the chosen writings of accomplished authors.
