As most of the English I students were on the Beta Club trip, we didn’t do anything new in English I Honors. However, we will have a very busy week as we prepare for the writing portion of the End of Course exam. I encourage you, students, to redouble your efforts in these last few weeks as we will be covering some very important topics with significant assessments still to come.

English 8 students completed the first 2/3 of the first act of The Diary of Anne Frank. Students will be using the character analysis information from this class in their writing class beginning next week.
