Hello students! On this LibGuide you will find the titles required and recommended by the Middle School English teachers and your librarian. The required titles are organized in grade level boxes below. Each grade level is required to read three titles (including one by our next visiting author, Joseph Bruchac), but we encourage you to read more! Check out the many wonderful titles listed below the required options.
While you can no longer access our physical library, you can access many of these titles through our SORA digital library. Did you know that you can expand our SORA collection by connecting it to your public library's collection? If you don't see a title on SORA that you want to read, send an email to Ms. Fox.
You can also help to keep our local independent bookstores in business by ordering new books through their online stores. Books that you purchase through local independent bookstores will be shipped directly to you! Check out the Ivy Bookshop's RPCS Summer Reading page.
Happy Reading!
Please make sure you read one of next year's visiting author Joseph Bruchac's books. Choose one title from this box.
