A student’s summer reading assignment will count as their first summative grade of 2023-24 school year. These assignments are meant to ensure that students continue to read over the summer and prepare students for the next school year. All books can be checked out from our local libraries.

For all high school students, the first step in selecting the correct summer reading text is knowing which English class you will be taking in 2023-2024. Typically, the course sequence is:
1) Grade 9: English I
2) Grade 10: English II
3) Grade 11: English III
4) Grade 12: English IV
Please note these important details:
- Some students take two English courses in a single year.
- Some rising 10th-grade students elected honors English classes. Honors students must read the designated honors-level text, although any student may also elect to read this text.
- Some rising 11th & 12th graders have elected the full IB Diploma Programme (DP) or a DP Language & Literature class.
If you are not certain what English course you will take in the fall, please email Anna Evans, Dean of Academic Affairs at aevans@morrisjeffschool.org for assistance.
