ENGLISH DEPARTMENT Living Our Language Developing creativity and instilling a sense of precision and care in the expression of ideas are the primary goals of the English Department. Written composition is taught to enable students to express their thoughts clearly, correctly and effectively in writing. Reading is encouraged for enjoyment. What the students learn from reading is an extra bonus. Department Head Fr. Gabriel sums it up precisely, “We would like the student to leave us convinced that English is unique among his subjects, that literature is, above all other studies, the mirror of life.” Mr. Edward Macko English IV Fr.
