Overview
Our Summer Reading Program invites students to find a book of interest to read over the summer. Our Community Reading List showcases new and/or well-loved titles. Rockport Middle School educators and staff members join our students and read a title of interest to prepare for a book discussion in September.
Rockport Middle School educators and staff members believe that summer reading should be an opportunity to:
support lifelong reading habits
develop an excitement for books and reading
create a collaborative community
connect students and staff members with high-interest, diverse titles
facilitate and engage in discussions about books.
Students are required to read two books this summer.
1. Choose a book from the Community Reading List (List Tab), complete the assigned book notes (Resources), and participate in the group discussion in September.
2. Choose a book of your preference that you have not previously read. Your English Language Arts teacher will assign a specific assignment upon your return to school.
