Reading
Summer reading is a vital part of any college-preparatory curriculum. We require our students to read during the summer to foster an appreciation for good literature; moreover, we know that the very best way to develop vocabulary and a sense of language structure and usage is to read widely and deeply. Clearly, the best students are those who have discovered a love of reading early on and who continue to do so throughout their academic experience.
