The only returnees to the show are Candance Cameron Bure, who played D.J. Tanner; Jodie Sweetin, who played Stephanie Tanner; and Andrea Barber, who played Kimmy Gibler. Stamos will; however, guest star and produce the show. Other co-stars like Bob Saget, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Dave Coulier and Lori Loughlin are on going, Netflix said. They also stated that the show will be released in the 2015-2016 year.

“As big fans of the original Full House, we are thrilled to be able to introduce Fuller House’s new narrative to existing fans worldwide who grew up on the original, as well as a new generation of global viewers that have grown up with the Tanners in syndication,” Netflix Vice President of Original Content, Cindy Holland, stated in a CNN.com interview.

The show starts off with D.J. Tanner, now named Tanner-Fuller after getting married, but now widowed and pregnant. Her lifelong best friend, Kimmy Gibler, moves in to help her care for her two boys and newborn. Lastly, Stephanie Tanner is now an aspiring musician.

The Full House series aired from 1987 to 1995 and will start up again in 2016 with thirteen spin-off episodes.

Mr. Stratton is an iconic role model for a all students wishing to progress in English.

He offers classes comprised of Honors English 10 and Enriched English 11. Both classes contain an ethic that is far beyond the expectation of the student, creating an adequate preparation for upper class and college courses.

Guaranteed novels to read for his tenth grade class are “1984” by George Orwell, “Othello” and “Hamlet” by William Shakespeare, “The Count of Monte Cristo” by Alexandre Dumas and “Something Wicked This Way Comes” by Ray Bradbury. Novels in eleventh grade consists of short stories from a class literature book and “The Great Gatsby” by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Discussions among teachers and classmates are a common norm in an educational setting, but Stratton takes it further by providing in depth, elaborate answers and asks questions that most teachers would not dare to ask.

A constructive mind is a must for this class, and if not, do not worry for you will catch on fast. Intuition and a bright tumultuous vocabulary will be apprehended within the first few weeks.

Cheating: do not even think about it. Cheating is on Stratton’s long list of no’s for he always requires students to write their essays in class. A tactic such as this is a prominent tool for the crafting of young students; rehearsing the mind to become responsible, self-reliant and incredibly independent. Websites such as Schmoop and Spark Notes are constantly checked and documented, creating assurance for his students that there will be no easy way out. Working hard and crafting thorough one’s work is a primary goal for Stratton.

The facts remain structural for his many years as an English teacher at Stow High School provide sufficient and well rounded evidence. Many teachers go to this man for help and advice to achieve for their students the same outcome and incentives he displays in his own. He is a legendary icon here at Stow High.
