Dear CTCS Parents and Students,

We are thrilled to reveal the 2025-2026 CTCS Summer Reading Program, a journey designed to spark imagination, deepen wisdom, and nurture hearts through the power of stories. From the delightful adventures of Frog and Toad and Mr. Popper’s Penguins for our younger readers to the epic tales of King Arthur, Mythology, and thought-provoking classics like A Raisin in the Sun and Machiavelli's The Prince for our older students, each title has been prayerfully selected to encourage curiosity, deepen character, and cultivate the values we hold dear at CTCS.

We want to remind you that this is not just about “getting assignments done.” It’s about creating meaningful family moments, nurturing a lifelong love of reading, and helping your student grow in wisdom and understanding, both academically and spiritually. Whether you’re reading aloud together or cheering them on as they complete their independent projects, you play a vital role in making this summer of reading a success.

Thank you for partnering with us as we inspire academic excellence, Godly character, and integrity in every life pursuit. Please navigate to the applicable grades for your family and dive into the reading requirements for their grade. We can’t wait to hear the stories, lessons, and excitement your child brings back to campus in the fall!
