Welcome to 11th grade English! What does the photo above have to do with English? A great deal, actually. 11th grade can be a very stressful time for students and parents, but if you take it step by step, you'll be ok. The same applies to English; I am going to challenge you academically this year with some difficult texts and some thought-provoking essays. You will be successful if you stay focused on your end goal. 11th grade is about looking ahead, figuring out what you might want to do with your life, and planning the best route to achieve your goals. I look forward to guiding you along my piece of this path.
