WELCOME DUBLIN GAELS!

Please see the links at the top right of the page to access your summer work.

WE ARE EXCITED TO WELCOME YOU TO YOUR FIRST YEAR AT DUBLIN HIGH SCHOOL.

YOU HAVE ENROLLED IN A CHALLENGING AND STIMULATING COURSE THAT WILL BEGIN YOUR JOURNEY OF A RIGOROUS COLLEGE PREPARATORY ENGLISH PROGRAM AND FOR THE AP COURSES AVAILABLE TO YOU IN ENGLISH YOUR JUNIOR AND SENIOR YEARS.

In order to be certain that this course is truly a good fit for you, look below for the criteria that we have found to be successful predictors of the students who do well in English 1 Advanced.

At Dublin High school, we want our students to be intellectually challenged but also well-balanced and happy. If after reading through the criteria you would like to wait a year before considering an honors level English class, please call your counselor immediately.

If you wait to try it out at the beginning of the year, there may be no place to transfer to as we are finding all classes, both advanced and college prep, to be full. If there is no space, you will not be able to transfer out. It is much wiser to make that decision now as you are considering your entire course load for upcoming year.

You will be asked to sign an Honors Contract when you come to school and want to be aware of all aspects of the class.
