BRIEF COURSE DESCRIPTION / OUTLINE: As described by the College Board, AP English Language and
Composition engages students in becoming skilled readers of prose written in a variety of rhetorical contexts,
and in becoming skilled writers who compose for a variety of purposes. Additionally, the focus of an AP
English Language and Composition course enables students to read complex texts with understanding and to
write prose of sufficient richness and complexity to communicate effectively with mature readers.

Simply put, this course will mirror the expectation of the freshman composition course offered at most
colleges and universities.
