The Liberty High School English Program prepares students to become independent learners who are proficient in writing, speaking, critical reading, listening, thinking, and viewing. Throughout the curriculum, students are introduced to a variety of literature, including novels, short stories, plays, poems, and non-fiction. They are expected to do an extensive amount of writing, including both creative and analytical essays.  With teacher guidance, students become responsible for their own learning; they increasingly assume leadership roles and make decisions in the classroom in order to develop interpretative and evaluative skills and make connections among their reading, their writing, and their lives.
