2016 Summer Reading

EPHS students are expected to complete a summer reading assignment prior to the start of school. All level 3 (standard) and level 2 (college prep.) students can CHOOSE one of the books for their grade. All level 1 (honors/AP) need to read both books. 

You will be assessed on the text(s) you read within the first two weeks of school. Be prepared for your first assessment of the year by taking good notes while you read. 

Below are some resources to help you access the required texts. 

If you have an iphone or ipad AND a local library card, you can download the Overdrive app and "borrow" the e-book or audio-book versions (if available) from your local library.
