    • Anything less than your best is unacceptable. This ranges from a simple homework assignment to a major research paper. 
    • You are here, so it is expected that you come to this class with K-6 knowledge of the English language.
    • Writing, like any other worthwhile pursuit, takes practice to achieve excellence. Excellence is your goal.
