High-School Literature and Writing
viewed through a Catholic lens
A thick layer of nihilism, smothered in
hopelessness and topped with a garnish of ick. This tasteless
dish is daily fare for too many high-school English courses.
Students deserve better. They should be inundated with
quality writing that inspires, that finds its source in
Truth, Beauty, and Goodness. The analysis they ponder should
ask questions that churn the mind while remaining firmly
rooted in our Catholic faith. The writing skills they develop
should aim at clarity of thought, quality of style and depth
of perception. Offer meat, not mush, with the classes of
White Horse Literature.
