As many know Harper Lee has decided to make a sequel to her famous novel “To Kill a Mockingbird”. Many are ecstatic about this announcement, but what do the English teachers here at Lehighton think?

“I’m extremely surprised; “Go Set a Watchman” might not live up to the expectations set by that of “To Kill a Mockingbird”.” stated Ms. Konek.

“I feel nervous, because “To Kill a Mockingbird” might become a one hit wonder.” replied Mrs. Steigerwalt.

“It’s about time.” Mrs. Kovach said

“I’m nervous, because many might take advantage of Harper Lee” said Mrs. Marchetti

“I look forward to what Harper Lee has to offer in this novel. "To Kill a Mockingbird" is one of the greatest novels I have ever read, so this new novel has big shoes to fill.” stated Mr. Hauser
