Ninth English
The Ninth Grade English curriculum spurs students to consider the salient issues of the day—inequality, conflict, and injustice—through the lens of literature; by so doing, they apprehend the human condition and begin the process of tracing society’s flaws back to the corresponding defects in our all-too-human nature. This journey attempts to engender empathy and awareness while imparting a global perspective. Using the course texts—The Odyssey, Lord of the Flies, The Merchant of Venice, and Song of Solomon—the goal of the course is to help produce compassionate, informed, articulate, and effective exponents of critical thought and positive change.
