2021 Summer Reading Assignments
White Plains High SchoolEnglish Department
This summer the English Department and the HS Librarians have created a list of suggested titles for summer reading. All students are expected to read at least one title from this list, but we encourage you to read as much as possible this summer. You will be asked to share and discuss your summer reading in your Enlgish class during the beginning of the 2021-2022 school year. The book lists are organized by grade (9-10 and 11-12) and inclulde links to the school library, where you can access digital copies of the books. Students who are taking an honors or Advanced Placement course next year should see below for their course-specific summer assignments.You can also access book talks for some of our suggested titles (given by WPHS staff) here: WP Summer Reading Book TalksThis is the summer reading and accompanying assignment for students who will be in English 9H in September 2021.English 10H Summer Reading AssignmentThis is the summer reading and accompanying assignment for students who will be in English 10H in September 2021.This is the summer reading and accompanying assignment for students who will be in English 11H in September 2021.This is the summer reading and accompanying assignment for students who will be in English 11AP in September 2021.This is the summer reading and accompanying assignment for students who will be in English 12AP in September 2021.This is the summer reading and accompanying assignment for students who will be taking Syracuse University Project Advance: WRT 105: Practices of Academic Writing & ETS: English Textual Studies in September 2021.
