Welcome to ELA 12! In this course, you will strengthen your skills as a critical reader, thoughtful writer, and effective communicator as you prepare for life beyond high school. Throughout the year, we will explore a variety of complex texts—including classic literature, modern works, and informational pieces—while focusing on analyzing author’s craft, evaluating arguments, and developing your own voice.
You will be expected to think deeply, support your ideas with strong evidence, and engage with texts in meaningful ways. Whether you are writing, reading, or participating in discussions, this class is designed to challenge you and help you grow as an independent learner. This course is an opportunity to deepen your thinking and strengthen your voice as a reader and writer.
