The many faces of Mrs. Shires :) 
Hello! Welcome to Steele High School.
I am excited about what this year will bring, despite some of the uncertainty. Know that we are forging ahead with plans for a great year!
Honors English 1 is an advance course that focuses on the skills needed to be successful as you move up in AP, Dual Credit, the military, college, and career. We read outside of class as well as as a class, such titles as Romeo & Juliet, Speak, Just Mercy and To Kill a Mockingbird. We will create poetry, read a variety of genres in the realm of short stories, dabble in research, and write. It is important that even if you are a remote learner, you participate. Expectations are high, but I know that you have taken on this challenge and will do your best. I am always here to help, so advocate for yourself as needed.
Our curriculum is Springboard, and it comes to use via the College Board. Whether you will be a remote learner or face-to-face, our work with Springboard will be digital.
Honors English 1 has been highly digital in prior years. I have added all the codes/passwords you will need to be ready for any activity or assignment below. Please make sure that you are looking at the correct class period.
PARENTS: I have a special Remind code for you. This makes it easy for me to communicate with you and for you to contact me as well. Please sign up for this. Never hesitate to contact me via Remind or email if youi have any quetsions. I will respond as quickly as I can.
