SUMMER READING FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS
This year your summer reading task is to read at least one full-length novel. You may choose a book that you already own or use the list of suggested novels to help you pick! The novel you select should be grade-level appropriate and something that you’ve never read before. Once you finish reading, click the link at the bottom of this page to answer questions about your book. Students who complete this form will earn a fun reward when we return to school in the fall!
