    Language and Literature Department 

    English Overview 

    The goal of the English Language Arts program is to create literate, thoughtful communicators in an increasing complex and information-rich world. Students refine their skills in reading, writing, speaking, listening and viewing. Through the exploration of a variety of texts, students will understand and appreciate language and literature as catalysts for deep thought and emotion.
