• Welcom to English II!

    I am Mrs. Wingate and I will be your English II or Honors English II teacher for the 2020-2021 school year! I am so happy to see and meet you all on Monday. I am excited to share what will most definitely be the most interesting school year ever with you all. As a graduate of Vanguard High School (class of 2008), I can tell you that you truly are attending the BEST School in the Land! Don't let any of your friends from any other school tell you any different! :) 

    This year will certainly be different from any other school year. We will have unique challenges and obstacles to overcome. But we will get through everything together. That being said, I have some information below for you and your parents.

    If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email me. kathleen.wingate@marion.k12.fl.us

    ALL of MY CLASSES will be using Microsoft Teams. I teach three sections of traditional brick and mortar classes and three sections of online classes.
