English & Spanish Department COVID Plan

In accordance with the overall high school plan of concentrating on bringing grades to passing for the third quarter, the English and Spanish Department is updating assignments in Infinite Campus by posting instructions, links, documents, and/or alternate assignments for third quarter work. New work and enrichment activities will soon be added; watch for updates.

Students' focus should be on major assignments: papers, presentations, speeches.
