7th Grade- Class of 2031

Hello incoming 7th graders!

We hope that you have a fantastic summer filled with fun, relaxation, and some good books. We hope you even make time to do some reading that is not part of a school assignment!

You have many options for obtaining your summer reading books. You can buy them, check them out from a public library, or, if you are a returning student, check them out from the Dwight library or as ebooks using Sora.

If you are a returning student and would like more information on how to use Sora to check out ebooks for summer reading, make sure to visit the Sora page on this website.

Summer Assignment

Students must read a minimum of three books, one of which has to be The Bletchley Riddle by Ruta Sepetys and Steve Sheinken. Below we have some recommendations for the other books, or you may choose your own. Please keep a Google document with all of the books you read, and prepare to share it with your teacher by September 2nd.

Please purchase a copy of The Bletchley Riddle here!

While these lists offer excellent recommendations, we also encourage you to take some time this summer to explore library and bookstore shelves. There are also many other options available on Sora, as well. Discovering new books that ignite your passion for reading can be an exciting journey!

If you have any questions, or if you are not able to complete the reading before the start of school, email the Head of Middle School Humanities, Ms. Nieto, at mnieto@dwight.edu.
