Senior Summer Reading
Class of 2027

Resource

All Senior English Electives:

  • All senior English electives require students to have read the assigned book for their fall elective. The books and relevant classes are listed below; please wait until mid-July when class schedules are posted before reading. 
  • All students will be assessed during the first week of school in a variety of ways, including graded seminars, written assignments, and objective quizzes.
  • Double check the ISBN to ensure that you have purchased the correct paperback version of the text (no eBooks or PDFs allowed).  You may opt to buy a used book if the ISBN is correct and the book has not already been annotated (since you will be annotating your text).
