The English Language Arts department of Black Horse Pike Regional School District is continuously engaged in reviewing and revising curriculum to prepare students for college and career paths and to fulfill New Jersey Student Learning Standards (NJSLS).  With the implementation of Writing Workshop strategies, Socratic Seminar discussions, and independent reading assignments, we have established a student-centered environment that encourages inquiry and develops critical thinking skills essential for lifelong learning.  Our goal is to nurture a culture of literacy that engages students in close readings of a variety of texts, empowers students to communicate effectively through a range of written and oral forms, and inspires students to create original work within a selection of genres.
