2009-2010 School Year

This has been the busiest start to a school year in a long time. There seem to be so many projects and things that need to be done. We are finally getting the plans for the new library/classroom/administration building done. The plan looks great now comes the waiting. For the last couple of years we thought about adding Dante's Inferno to the curriculum for 12th grade AP English and this year we did it. We created podcasts of the lectures and used a wiki in conjunction with the class. All in all it went well. The Divine Comedy offers a lot of possibilities for interesting discussions and assignments. It certainly is still a work in progress, but it was a good start.

Now the holiday season is upon us and everyone is looking forward to some time off. Happy holidays
