The curriculum actively engages students in reading and reflecting on a wide range of texts with opportunities to develop thinking and writing skills. The English/Language Arts program in grades 9-12 promotes critical thinking, reading, writing, listening, speaking, viewing and researching skills that students use to analyze, evaluate and synthesize text.
The vision at CTECS is to develop relevant, lifelong reading and writing habits in our students that will enhance their learning pathway and prepare them for success in a global community. The vision for literacy in the Connecticut Technical Education and Career System is to cultivate literate and productive students who are college, career and life ready.
