Philosophy and Objective

 It is the goal of the Fort Payne High School Honors English Program to equip its students with the ability to effectively communicate with today’s world.  Therefore, honors English instruction will focus on developing strong fundamental skills in critical thinking, listening, speaking, reading, and writing and will offer opportunities for students to demonstrate success and fluency in these skills.

 General Description

  Honors English provides a faster- paced learning environment for self-motivated, intelligent students. This program is designed as a preparatory course for students planning to attend college.   In this program you are expected and should be eager to work harder to extend yourself academically.  One of the main goals of this program is to greatly improve your reading and writing skills; therefore, you will be required to read more and to write better than you ever have before.   

 Curriculum

 Ninth grade English stresses world literature as mandated by the Alabama State Department of Education.  This curriculum is intended to introduce students to the diversity of the human experience, promote tolerance, and allow students to discover the challenges and triumphs of other cultures.
