Composition
The composition sequence is designed to equip students with rhetorical knowledge, technical skill, and critical habits of mind that will contribute to their personal and intellectual development as writers, both in school and across the diverse contexts of work and community life. The two course sequence emphasizes inquiry-driven learning and reflects the belief that skill in writing can be developed through principled study and guided practice.
Literature
Core Literature courses equip students with skills in critical thinking, problem solving, and effective communication, preparing them to lead in the classroom and in the workforce. Guided by skilled professionals and working closely in teams, students read and engage with writers and thinkers from a variety of cultural backgrounds, practicing the interpersonal skills necessary for success after graduation.
