If this sounds like you, consider English III or English IV Online for next year!

All parent and student drivers are asked to remember school zone safety at all times on campus and on adjacent roadways. Safety is the first priority.
Tonight and Thursday parents can learn about next year's course selection options for grades 9-12. See the parent and/or student sessions below or visit our Course Selection Process page that includes videos and links. https://www.bentonvillek12.org/page/course-selection-process
HAC opens on February 3 for next year's course selections. Current juniors have several options when it comes to choosing their senior English class, and English IV Online might be the right fit for you. English IV Online follows the traditional English IV curriculum, but with flexible class attendance after the first two weeks of school.
This course is ideal for students who typically perform well in English class, prefer to work independently, and do not require teacher prompting to complete assignments. English IV Online can potentially offer you the flexibility you want for your job, internship, Ignite, NWTI, or personal hobbies. If you are interested, please speak to your counselor or talk to Mrs. Bowers or Ms. Perkins for more information.
