Independent Reading

ACS believes in the importance of reading both for pleasure and based on interest. Below you will find book recommendations that have been curated for independent summer reading. Many of the reading suggestions are available on Sora in audio and eBook format.

We encourage our students to take time to engage in some deeper thinking, select a book that interests them and continue to develop the healthy habit of reading daily.
