Course Description:
 

This is a college preparatory grade 12 course that integrates English into the Arts, Media, and Entertainment pathway in a way that emphasizes arts and social action. Students develop and refine their personal and unique mission statement (credo) and aesthetic, which will be reflected through their yearlong course work including a personal monologue, reflective essay, and portfolio development. In addition, students will apply their personal credo to create individual proposals for a social action arts organization. In groups, students will create and present a business plan for one of the proposed social action arts organizations. They will design and perform a piece that exemplifies the work of the organization. The business plan is added to a digital portfolio created at the beginning of the course and added to throughout the course. This digital portfolio, along with the final performance piece, are presented to a career readiness jury panel of professionals as a final assessment.
