You’ll practice the habits strong thinkers use: noticing patterns, questioning assumptions, evaluating evidence, and constructing well-reasoned conclusions.

ENGLISH 11 or 12 AP ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND COMPOSITION (52625)
Consider A.P Lang.
AP Language and Composition focuses on writing and the study of rhetoric, which is the study of persuasion. The texts that are included in AP Lang include lots of non-fiction and historical or current events. If you’re a person that likes English, there is plenty for you in this class, but there is also a lot for people who aren’t the typical “English” person…. a lot of students take it because they want the communication, critical thinking, and writing skills that will help them in their future careers in business, tech, creative careers, and I even have a handful of students who are into healthcare, and they use what we do in AP Lang to be leaders in that field, and to make them stand out.

DEBATE (SPEECH AND DEBATE) (52270)
Debate is both a classroom and a competitive arena where you’ll practice clear thinking, persuasive speaking, and respectful disagreement—then test those skills at tournaments. Whether you’re brand‑new or returning from last season, you’ll find a place on our team: newcomers build foundations in argumentation, research, case writing, cross‑examination, and refutation, while veterans deepen strategy, refine delivery, and help lead files and practices. In class, you’ll blend mini‑lessons, drills, research labs, and live scrimmages across Public Forum, Lincoln‑Douglas, Congressional Debate, and speech events, with chances to specialize. We emphasize critical thinking—questioning assumptions, weighing impacts, evaluating sources, and adapting to different judges and audiences—alongside integrity, accurate citation, and sportsmanship. Success looks like steady growth: running complete rounds with confidence, responding to counterarguments under time, revising cases with feedback, mentoring teammates, and representing our school with poise at local and regional competitions.
