Afterschool Tutoring Session

All reading days will start promptly at 3 p.m. (Location TBA) and should be over by 4p.m. Students need to have a ride avalible to pick them up by 4p.m..  Any students still at school after 4:20 will be asked to go to the Media Center for the Extended Day Program.

'Young Goodman Brown'

If you are still confused about the allegory found in Nathaniel Hawthorne's 'Young Goodman Brown' please review this prezi created by a group of High School students.  Young Goodman Brown Analysis

Be aware, this is the type of analysis that will be expected of you in 11th and 12th grade classes.  It might be a good idea to start preparing now!
