The Seaholm English Department 2025 Summer Common Read Assignments
The Seaholm English Department believes summer should be a time for rest, relaxation, and fun for students and their families. We also believe summer reading assignments should be engaging, challenging, and provide students an opportunity to get excited about their upcoming English courses. Therefore, our 2025 summer reading assignments will consist of the following:
All students NOT enrolled in AP English Language and Composition or AP English Literature and Composition (which includes incoming College Prep 9th, Honors 9th, College Prep 10th, Honors 10th, College Prep 11th and College Prep 12th students) will have two assignments: one common assignment per grade level, and one reader’s choice assignment per grade level. Students enrolled in Advanced Placement Language and Composition or Advanced Placement Literature and Composition for 2025-26 will have a summer reading assignment designed by the AP teachers to support College Board course expectations. Students enrolled in the Honors Flexible Scheduling Program will have summer reading assignment designed by the Flex Team to coincide with their focus of study for academic year 2025-26.
