| Course Descriptions | |
English English and Reading classes teach literacy and practical skills. While most classes are taught in current-era American English, some may also include historic versions of the language, and Fur-Side inflection depending on the needs and overall course purpose. Many of these classes have field trips to relevant locations or events, and some sponsor or are supplimented by extra-curricular clubs. | |
