Welcome to Chris Persson's home page.
I am an English teacher at Chico High School and a committed member of a
strong English department. My teaching assignment includes college prep
and honors freshman English and Honors sophomore English in the
Academy of Communications and Technology.
I am the coordinator of the ACT program. One of my many duties as
coordinator is to serve as a contact person for ACT families and for
others inside and outside of the Chico Unified School District. If
you are interested in information about our program or need to contact ACT
teachers, email me at cpersson@chicousd.org
or call my classroom (530-891-3026 ext. 604). ACT staff email
addresses can also be found at the ACT website. Students and parents in
both ACT and Honors 10 are
also welcome to call me at home.
ACT 9 and 10 students are in classes taught by Chris. I am often assisted
by competent student teachers and college interns. In the ACT program, the structure of the lessons,
the daily schedule and the groups will be
designed weekly to meet curriculum and student needs.
Materials Required for Class
Each student in English 9 and 10 is required to keep a writing folder in
the classroom. You must also have a three-ring binder, or a section of one
to be used for English, in class each day, as well as a pen or pencil and
binder paper.
Assignment Guidelines
All written or typed assignments should reflect your best effort. Typed
homework is always appreciated and sometimes required. Whether you write
in pencil or pen or type, always work neatly. You must have margins on
both sides of the paper. If working with pen, cross out errors with a
single line. Avoid splotches, messy cross-outs, wrinkled paper, ragged
edges. Work on one side only. Write your first and last name and the date
in the top right hand corner of the paper. You might also title the
assignment there. No other information is required unless specified by
your teacher.
