why I believe I should be in your Pre-AP English class. I have a great desire to be in this class because I loved to be challenged in class and learn new things. Getting into this class would help better prepare myself for what is to come. In past classes, I never felt like I was being pushed to do better, so I am looking forward to that.

Should your community be able to choose what kids should be reading or should your english teachers be able to choose? Communities can pick what kids can read because if there is profanity in the book or if you think they your child is at a lower/higher level then what they’re reading.
