The summer between eighth and ninth grade, students are required to read the following books:
The Help, by Kathryn Stockett
The Outsiders, by S.E. Hinton
Students will be tested on these books the first week of the new school year.
If you have any questions about the literary selections, you are welcome to contact Ms. Amy Jacobs (ajacobs[at]busd.k12.ca.us) or Ms. Kristy Brown (krbrown[at]busd.k12.ca.us).
During the school year, students will read specific books from the ninth curriculum as well as selected readings completed on their own time. This reading load is consistent with similar Honors English classes in other advanced programs.
