I hope everyone enjoyed the Winter Break and is returning to school refreshed with a renewed commitment to learning! I'm excited that your back and we have many engaging activities planned this week. We will begin to prepare to create our argumentative research paper based on the following prompt: Is a college education valuable? Your essay must be organized as an argument in which you assert a precise claim, support it with reasons and evidence, and acknowledge and refute counterclaims fairly.
