Hello! My name is Mr. Reagan Koschel, and I teach English at Eastside High School. One of my goals is to create an environment in the classroom where every student has a voice. I value student input; therefore, any questions, comments, or concerns regarding the course are welcome. Additionally, extra help will be available by appointment. Simply, come see me, and we will find a time to work. I believe that every student has an equal opportunity to excel in what they want to do with their lives. I aspire to equip my students to be successful and to be good human beings both in and out of the classroom. Through the observation of literature, we can obtain better insight as to what is important in life. I look forward to your joining me on this journey. GO EAGLES!!!
