12th Grade Courses

English 12 (EES87-EES88)
Senior English looks back on many of the themes addressed during the previous three years of English Language Arts study while also looking ahead to the future demands of college and careers. Course materials and assessments make use of real world problems and current events to stimulate critical thinking about issues of personal, local, and global importance. Literary selections may include Hamlet, The Stranger, The Joy Luck Club, and The Kite Runner.

​AP Literature and Composition (EES87X-EES88X)
The AP English Literature and Composition course engages students in the careful reading and critical analysis of imaginative literature. Through the close reading of selected texts, students deepen their understanding of the ways writers use language to provide both meaning and pleasure for their readers. As they read, students consider a work’s structure, style, and themes as well as such smaller-scale elements as the use of figurative language, imagery, symbolism, and tone. Literary works that may be read in this course include Hamlet, Frankenstein, Heart of Darkness, The Grapes of Wrath, Invisible Man, and The Kite Runner. The study of poetry features works that are representative of eras from the Renaissance to the present.
