AP Lit and AP Lang students can visit the course pages (linked in the navigation) for  additional, optional summer reading suggestions.

There are no summer reading requirements CP English classes or for English electives.






A Note About Policy: If a parent requests that his/her own child not read a given book, the teacher and/or school administrator should resolve the issue, perhaps by arranging for use of alternative material meeting essentially the same instructional purpose.
