The program of studies in English offers courses which address the development of literature in England and in the United States. Reading literature produced over a span of time and in different cultures offers an appreciation of the creative imagination and a deeper understanding of the human condition. All English courses enhance the development of vitally important analytical and critical skills in reading and writing. Our accomplished faculty will interact with you through one on-one conferences, small classes, and individual attention to develop your writing. Students can also receive teacher certification for grades 7-12 in our Adolescence Education program.
