My Project

Before sending my seniors out into the world, I am exposing them to a novel rich with history and creativity. The footnotes in the novel brings the rich history of the Dominican Republic to life. While the mixture of Spanish and English brings together their experience at our multicultural school, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao will seal so much of their education and allow students to expand their exposure to the human spectrum through literature.

Seeing themselves in the works covered in class invites students to reach beyond their everyday environments and dreams.
