Summer 2016

Incoming 9th graders should select a title from the list below. 9th graders will use only these titles.
Students may choose to complete the Summer Reading Response (linked below) as part of their summer reading grade. This link is available over the summer to allow them to respond while the details are still fresh in their minds. If students do not complete the online response by 11:59 p.m. on August 31, 2016, they will take a quiz in class shortly after the school year starts. Summer Reading Response

New for 2016: Student may select any title of their choosing; please do not use a title read for previous Summer Reading or class assignments.
Because students are selecting their own book, we encourage parents to use this opportunity to discuss their child’s reading choices with them as their student selects their summer reading book. Staff members have offered some of their favorites from which students may choose. These selections are just offered for those looking for a different option or inspiration in choosing a book.
