THE SUMMER READING PROJECT

This summer your reading will be assigned based on your English class for next year. You will be responsible for getting your own book. Digital copies are not encouraged and physical copies are preferable. Books are intended to be held, written in, and smell like an old book, not an iPad. In order for you to go buy the books ASAP we wanted to get you the Summer Reading list right away. If you have any questions, email Mr. Kinman (after 6/17/2019), or your English teacher. 

​All assignments that go with the readings will be communicated with you by your English teacher. If you want to get a head start on the reading, start reading and annotating.
