MISSION STATEMENT
To build a foundation for college and career readiness, students must read widely and deeply from among a broad range of high-quality, increasingly challenging literary and informational texts. Through extensive reading of stories, dramas, poems, and myths from diverse cultures and different time periods, students gain literary and cultural knowledge as well as familiarity with various text structures and elements. By reading texts in history/social studies, science, and other disciplines, students build a foundation of knowledge in these fields that will also give them the background to be better readers in all content areas. Students can only gain this foundation when the curriculum is intentionally and coherently structured to develop rich content knowledge within and across grades. Students also acquire the habits of reading independently and closely, which are essential to their future success. Senior classes will have some emphasis in British and some American and World Literature while sophomore classes will focus on World Literature and some American Literature.

Access to Instruction
Due to the COVID-19 health crisis, all instruction has transitioned to a "distance learning" mode, whether students are in class or not. For that reason, I will be relying on Microsoft Teams to deliver instruction and documents. If you have any questions concerning this, please email me at pnohrden@washoeschools.net.
Links for Teams access are shown below.
