Sean Cruess - Principal

For Friday, December 16, students should read the C.S. Lewis essay that was handed out in class - "Man or Rabbit?"  They are required to highlight important ideas in the text and come to class prepared to discuss the reading.  Due to Santa Shop we may not have seminar on Friday.  In that case, we will discuss the essay on January 6.

Attached below is the seminar syllabus and the calendar for reading Oedipus Rex.

Assignment for Friday, September 16

Purchase Oedipus Rex.  We are using the edition published by Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Classics.  It can be purchased new on Amazon for $3.99.

Read Plato's "Allegory of the Cave" (attached below) and bring 3 discussion questions and an illustration of the cave to class.

Mr. Cruess is teaching 8th grade seminar this year with Ms. Buis and Mr. McCauley.  He is also team-teaching 8th grade religion with Mr. Kelleher.

If you have questions of a classroom or instructional nature, please direct those questions first to the teacher.  If you have administrative questions, contact Mr. Cruess or Mrs. D'Aria in the school office.
