Teaching with Passion, Learning by Choice
Honor Moorman with Brad Dehart, Richard Flieger, Nancy Gregory, Liz Ozuna, Lindsey Perret, Donna Reed, Amy Stengel, and Lydia M. Valdés

Honor Moorman and her colleagues describe the enthusiastic response from high school students and teachers to the school’s annual tradition of English minicourses—mixed-grade-level classes that take the place of regular English classes for two weeks in the last half of the spring semester. Teachers are given an opportunity to teach a specific topic they feel passionate about, while students can choose the minicourse that sounds the most intriguing to them.
