This course is designed to further prepare students for the various types of writing they can expect to do in college courses. This will include responding to and analyzing both literature and historical events, preparing essays and narratives, setting up laboratory reports, and researching and documenting library papers. This course is recommended for college-bound seniors. Juniors may take this class with permission. Only one section of this course is offered each year.
Enrollment is limited to fifteen.
Students conduct in-depth research on the current topic, construct arguments, design strategies, and practice debating both sides of the resolution in a workshop environment. Participation in league and tournament debates outside of the classroom is required.
