This year, our summer reading is themed: Bridges.
Each of the books connects to our theme either literally or metaphorically. This spring, we are introducing the theme and connecting students with books through fun classroom and whole school activities. In the fall, when we return to school, we will focus on what it means to build a bridge.

Most titles are available on Sora, which requires a student email account name and utilizes the same password as the student's Chromebook.
Each book has its own page that provides a description/summary (from Amazon), a broad connection to our theme, and some staff and student recommendations. Some texts also have a reading guide.
