11th Grade Courses

English 11 (EES85-EES86)
The chosen themes and literature of the junior year are meant to help students begin the transition toward young adulthood. Preparation for the SAT, as well as the drafting and revision of the personal statement, emphasize the importance of college preparation, the college application process, and post-secondary planning. The Great Gatsby, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Catcher in the Rye, Fences, A Streetcar Named Desire, and The Tortilla Curtain are titles that may be read as part of this course. In addition, students will continue to refine their written and verbal communications skills through performance tasks requiring public presentation, collaboration, and research.

​AP English Language and Composition (EES85X-EES86X)
The AP course in English Language and Composition engages students in becoming skilled readers of prose written in a variety of rhetorical contexts, and in becoming skilled writers who compose for a variety of purposes. Both their writing and their reading should make students aware of the interactions among a writer’s purposes, audience expectations, and subjects as well as the way generic conventions and the resources of language contribute to effectiveness in writing.
