Jane Schaffer

Tuesday, December 4, 2001 — Jane Schaffer is renowned for her writing program. She has developed rules to create solid writing techniques for compositions.

Jane Schaffer developed her innovative methods from her own students. She has been an English teacher for many years and derived the rules that govern sound compositions from her students' essays.

Jane Schaffer visited Verdugo's staff to assist them further with improving the composition writing techniques of our students. The English department has been using Schaffer's techniques for three years and the Stanford 9 scores have risen dramatically during the past years.

Verdugo wants to incorporate Ms. Schaffer's program in all its departments. In this manner, all our students will benefit from stronger writing styles all across the curriculum.
