A Note from the English Faculty... We support summer engagement. Summer reading enlarges a student's personal corpus; stretches a student's ability to read, listen, and think critically and independently; and contributes to encouraging a valuable lifelong leisure activity. Our faculty has carefully selected the titles and authors on the following lists. Students should prepare to write on and discuss all titles as soon as the first day of school. Moreover, all summer reading requirements have attached assignments, so students should be sure to plan ahead and complete all work to turn in the first day of school. It will be difficult, if not impossible, for a student to pass an English course without successfully completing summer reading. All assignments should be the student's original thoughts, with no help from outside or internet sources. Students should type all assignments and upload them to Turn-it-In during the first day of class. Please contact the head of Prep's English Department, Ms. Sharon Terry, with any questions: sharon.terry@hhprep.school.
