Pre-Course Requirements: The summer before students enroll in AP English, they should read the following novels: Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte and Dune by Frank Herbert.
Mid-Course Requirements: Over Christmas break, students are required to read Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe.
In AP English Literature and Composition, students write a 350-word essay each week and read extensively outside class. The basic textbook is from British literature, but students are expected to read other works of world literature concurrently. Students take practice tests to help them prepare for the multiple-choice and essay sections on the AP exam.
In addition, seniors join with the regular English 12 class and write and produce the quarterly feature paper Eagle’s Eye. Students must take the AP Literature and Composition exam in May.
