English 9 is a course that uses texts of high complexity to provide an integrated language arts study in reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language in order to ready students for college and career. Students must think critically while actively reading for explicit and implicit meaning as they examine both literary and informational texts.
Students will write for a variety of purposes including developing and supporting argumentative claims, creating informative and expository responses, and crafting narratives that develop real or imagined events. The course places an emphasis on identifying and using textual evidence to support critical analysis whether it be for a written or spoken response. Finally, students will acquire effective listening, viewing, and speaking skills and be able to transfer those specific skills into a collaborative setting.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP 1: IDEAS AND STRATEGIES
Students will get a front row seat and see how early-stage business investors make their investments. They first look through the lens of an investor. Students will learn the fundamentals of identifying opportunity, creating value, and capturing value with the Three Pillars of Entrepreneurship™. They will prepare their own rubric for investing, and develop startup investment recommendations. Next, they will look through the lens of the entrepreneur. Students will apply insights and understanding to develop a business concept of their own, and develop their idea into an investor pitch deck.
ENTREPRENEURSHIP 2: ENTREPRENEURIAL RESEARCH
Research can be the difference between success and failure. This course teaches students approaches and methods for increasing their probability of success. Then students will apply value creation directly to venture design. They will take a deep dive into entrepreneurial strategy, and apply these learnings to further develop and fortify their venture.
