Just because summer is here does not mean you should stop learning. Pick up a book from the public library, take a class, go to camp, or volunteer your time for a good cause. More importantly, check the list of courses below against your class schedule for next school year.

Teachers expect you to complete the listed assignments and be prepared for the first day of class in August. Most of you already know what you are suppose to read and complete over the summer, but just in case, here is the official website with summer assignments. Summer is a great time to expand your knowledge and learn new things. Be prepared and see you in August!
