The mission of this department is to develop students’ abilities in the areas of reading, writing, and speaking to glorify God. Our goal is to help students communicate their ideas clearly and to read and comprehend all literature and writings according to the State’s standards. Students will learn to live in the world without being conformed to the world.
Each course will study grammar, writing, and speaking skills throughout the year. At each level each project is designed to build on the skills already mastered, and introduce new skills and concepts to improve the students’ ability to communicate.
