English 9 HonorsIn 9th grade English we focus on grammar and mechanics as well as learning about all of the genres in literature. This class is extremely important in setting up students to be successful throughout high school. English is a subject where the students not only learn the material, but they also learn valuable life lessons to carry with them.
This class is going to be pushed and challenged with their work. I believe in every student, and I know that they can succeed if they put their mind to it. |

We are going to be finishing up The Odyssey and taking our test on Wednesday 2/15. We have finished up our very first story, "The Most Dangerous Game".
