American Literature has been one of the best classes this whole year! I think the competitions were my favorite part, because they were super intense but lots of fun! The Great Gatsby and Huck Finn were obviously my favorite to read. I am looking forward to watching the movie this week and to senior year! Yay!

~ I love how Mrs. Carnes always finds a way to make reading fun and enjoyable to everyone. You extend your grace and for that I am forever grateful to have you as my teacher! I really have learned so much in your classes and I know you always want the best for all your students :) thank you so much for being our awesome teacher! 

Best yet!

Every year at Fideles supersedes the last in a positive light. Y'all are amazing classmates, friends, and I can't believe we are one year closer to graduation and to closing this chapter of our lives.

Seniors, I will cry at your graduation most probably but that's okay, because y'all are some of the best people I know. Your friendships mean so much, and they are one of many great qualities that surround you all as a class. Y'all are amazing, and you're going to kill it in college. Love you all!

Mrs. Carnes, I truly loved being able to be part of this class. Every year, I am reminded of how much I love reading because your passion for literature shines through and it inspires me. I love it! Thank you for all you do, and putting up with our rambunctious class through our debates and laughs.

And Juniors, we got this. One year left; let's do it. We definitely have grown a lot these past 3 years of high school, but we can finish strong together. Love you all so much and I pray for every one of you to have a fantastic year ahead of you!

Peace Out Suckers!

Quite frankly I am super stoked to be done with school. I hate mandatory things and being told what to do BUT english was never that bad a class. I love to read and I'm okay with writing so ye English was definitely my favourite class. I'm not big on what we read this year.....I preferred world lit. However the Great Gatsby was an awesome book to end the year on. I'm a little bummed I lost the Tom Sawyer competition because this was the first time I've ever lost an English competition. Another nice thing about this year has been knowing who the juniors were. As many of you know, I have no idea who anybody is. I'm really oblivious so unless I actively see and interact with people I won't know who they are. So this year it was really nice knowing who I was going to school with for all these years.

Senior Advice: DON'T TAKE PHYSICS

A Blast of Books

We read so many books this year! I could complain about every single one, but to be honest, it was alright reading them. I learned so much about American writers and philosophy, and all of it was done while surrounded by friendly and familiar faces. I can't wait for whatever literature class I have next year, as long as I get a summer in between.

It was lit

This year has been one of the best years in Literature yet! Even though reading and writing is not my favorite thing to do, Mrs. Carnes always makes it interesting. I loved the competitions throughout my many years of literature, even though this year was the first year my team has won. My favorite books we read this year were Huck Finn and Great Gatsby, of course. I wish we had read Green Eggs and Ham and The Sneetches by Dr. Seuss again.

To the upcoming seniors, don't forget to enjoy your senior year. It really flies by. It may not seem like it in when you're sitting in physics class bored out of your mind waiting for next period, but at the end of the year you will look back and realize how fast it really went. I'll miss being in the same class with most of y'all and wish you the best as you finish this chapter in your life!

Well, that's a wrap

So I'm going to be honest, and this probably won't come as a surprise, but I've never really liked Literature. I have always found it hard, but this year during Huck Finn and Great Gatsby, I actually saw a glimmer of enjoyment. I know it's crazy, but in that time, I liked literature! The competitions were fun even though I never won, and I'm excited for the Great Gatsby viewing! I hope everyone has a lovely next year! See ya around!

Awesome year!

Wow! American Lit has been super fun this year, and I have enjoyed our joined class a lot! I really liked reading Huck Finn and The Great Gatsby, and I had fun with the competitions (though I lost both lol). I look forward to senior year and another great literature class! I would have to say, I wish we could have done a bit more poetry writing in our time focusing on poetry, but that's okay!

Anyways... Seniors, I will miss you all and have been blessed with the opportunity to get to know the incredible people you are! Juniors, I am overjoyed to be a part of this class and look forward to next year! And Mrs. Carnes, thank you for being such an amazing teacher, eager to extend grace and overall just awesome!

Woohoo! We are so close to summer, y'all! Ahhh!!
