Summer Reading

Each student in elementary grades through 12th is required to be involved in the Summer Learning Program. We feel summer reading contributes to students cultivating good lifelong reading habits and preparing them for the start of school in August.

The summer program includes reading two books chosen by members of the English faculty. The works reflect a combination of classical foundation and exposure to contemporary literatures. Students in High School Honors courses will be expected to read one additional book.

Students in the Advance Honors English Program (7-12) will be expected to read additional books during the summer. They will have related summer assignments and will be tested upon returning to school.

In grades 3-8, students complete a series of worksheets to hone their basic math skills and to not lose vital proficiencies gained throughout the academic year.
