The curriculum is internationally benchmarked, which means it is competitive across the state and across the world and it contains standards to enable students to meet 21st century expectations of innovative and creative thinking. The goal is that students be prepared to enter college and the work force when they graduate, and can hold their own in our increasingly global economy.
The curriculum in English classes focus on critical reading skills and analytical writing skills. Students are also taught to listen actively and to speak convincingly. Students read for comprehension and gather evidence. They write analytical essays, using specific examples from the text to support their suppositions. Attention is paid to technology, as well, so that students are prepared for or increasingly technology-reliant world.

Chalk Talk: Deciding on a Major
One of the biggest questions students have when applying to college is whether it’s okay to apply undecided, or whether they should declare a major, even if they aren’t sure what they want to study. The fact is, the majority of applicants apply to college undecided. If a student knows what s/he wants to study, s/he should apply for that major. Some students choose to apply to programs they aren’t actually interested in thinking that these programs have higher acceptance rates or are easier to get into, and planning on transferring or switching majors later. This can be a problem because it can sometimes be very difficult to change majors, especially when moving from one department to another. Also, financial aid might be an issue when switching majors. The safest bet is to just be honest and up front; an undecided student should apply undecided.
