WELCOME.......

      
TO SEVENTH GRADE ENGLISH CLASS!

                       During the course of this year,  you will be involved in a program                                    designed to improve your communication skills. 
                                              The areas of improvement are listed below:

" Literature is the best
 part
of our souls
 that we break
 off and give each other;  angels guard its making
 and its preservation."
 from "Chasing Shakespeare"
                      Sarah Smith


  "Education is the most powerful tool
 that you
 can use
 to
 change the world." 

            Nelson Mandella
