Summer Reading List 2005

The purpose of this summer reading list is twofold: to encourage reading and to have a common base for discussion in your classes. You must read the following books listed under your appropriate grade level prior to your return to school in August when an all-school evaluation will take place. Please do not wait until summer's end to obtain and read these books. You will be receiving additional information during the summer with instructions on how to prepare for the evaluation. We encourage parents to read and discuss these selections with their daughters. --- SJA English Department, Theology Department, and Librarians
