You are invited to the feast of literature, the banquet of discussion, and the celebration of thought! Get ready to WRITE with CONVICTION and READ for UNDERSTANDING!

A note to parents and guardians:

 The Bronte HS English program strives to align course expecations, assignments, and activities vertically across 9-12th grades using a set of college readiness standards as a reference point. Additionally, our goal is to go beyond allignment to achieve excellence. Collecting, organizing, retaining information, time management, and self- reflection are good strategies that can be practiced at home. Students must be prepared for the complexity of college, their trades, and the skills necessary to succeed. Your encouragement and support is appreciated very much. I look forward to working with you as a partner in your son/daughter's education.

Respectfully,

Amber Estes
