Mission Statement
The progression of integrated skills in reading, writing, speaking, and listening are an integral part of all disciplines; therefore, each student needs to develop strategies to process information and communicate effectively in a world of changing technologies.

It is through language and literature that human beings fulfill the basic need of communicating information, ideas and feelings. The program will foster an appreciation and understanding of the skills, forms and methods which are characteristic of successful communication.
