All adolescents struggle to define themselves as they question the world and their place in it. In the ID program, students use reading and writing workshops to discover their identities and mark their place in the world with their own voices and vision. The program's compelling texts and rigorous writing activities prepare students for the academic challenges ahead and inspire belief in their own possibilities by: Engaging readers ; Empowering writers ; Improving ELA skills and achievement.
