Summer Reading 2016-2017

Students and parents should choose at least one novel to read over the summer and complete the reading packet for their grade level. Pre-AP students will need to choose from the Pre AP selected novels.

Students will have a test and a project based on the novel they read during the summer. Students will also receive a grade for completing the reading packet. Students may turn in their answers on notebook paper in the fall. They do not need to print the packet.

Please email Ms. McNeil, ELA Department Chair at emcneil@springisd.org if you have any questions.
