Summer Reading Program

Dear Parent/Guardian,

 

The ability to read well is a powerful predictor of success in school. We want all students to develop a love of reading that will remain with them for life. We ask your support of our 2010 Middle School Summer Reading Program. Simply stated, the purpose of the program is to have students read throughout the summer.

 

Our city library has extensive titles for young readers and are ready to help students select books. For middle school students, you may want to review your child's California STAR Reading Level, which is reported on the parent report of the test results. Once you ascertain your child's reading level you can review appropriate titles from the California STAR Reading List at:  http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/sr/readinglist.asp

 

The Summer Reading Program for students entering grades 6 through 8 includes: Reading a minimum of one book and complete the attached Activity Log for one of the completed books. Return the Activity Log to your Language Arts teacher no later than September 10th. This activity will be included as part of your child’s fall assignments.

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your child's school or my office.

 

We wish you all a relaxing summer break and look forward to your return on August 31st.

 

Sincerely,

Annette Alpern, Ed.D.

Assistant Superintendent
