300 English Hall (upstairs). The hall includes 16 classrooms
and a workroom. The workroom is off limits to students unless
they are accompanied by a teacher. |
|
| * KMHS English Department is composed of
twenty-one teachers. (Since one-third of the teachers are UGA
graduates, be very careful on the English Hall if you are a Georgia
Tech fan.) |
|
| * All teachers are available for extra help
and make-up work for students. See your teacher to determine
the specific times when he or she is available for extra help. |
