ENGLISH DEPARTMENT Ensley's English Department has thirteen full-time teachers and one part-time teacher under Miss Kathryn Green, the Department Head. We have two accelerated classes. Many graduates have been placed in advanced English classes their first year in college. Our English Department has been recognized as being outstanding by the National Council of Teachers of English. The Council selected one-hundred schools for a special study of high school English programs. From Alabama, Ensley was one of four selected for this study. From 1959 to 1963, Ensley has had winners in the contest sponsored by the council. This year at the state fair, Ensley students won twelve first and second prizes for their literary articles, themes, term papers, poems, essays, and short stories.
