BHS Media Center: Thank you for allowing me to address your 8th graders today! Here's some additional info on Summer Reading at BHS that may prove helpful:

• Students must read at least 1 book (honors students: 2 titles) from the list for their incoming grade.
• All other pertinent information, incl. assignments, book trailers & more, is on the BHS LMC home page (http://tinyurl.com/bhslmcgr8t) in the Summer Reading Folder. (Direct BHS LMC Summer Reading folder link = http://tinyurl.com/bhslmc-summerreading )

Attached: 9th grade SR List

Attached: 9th grade SR List book mark (you should receive hard copies on bright green card stock)

Attached: SR online screen shots with links (step-by-step view of how to access the Summer Reading Folders online)

Important update: Berkley High School is no longer endorsing the book HATE LIST on the 9th grade Summer Reading List in light of a recent situation at Anderson Middle School. The title appears on some earlier copies of the 2015 Summer Reading lists. If students choose to read the book, they do so without the official endorsement of Berkley High School. The book HATE LIST deals with the aftermath of a school shooting and has received many awards. The book will remain in the BHS LMC collection.
