Reading over the summer not only strengthens previous learning, but lays the groundwork for the next school year.Summer reading assignments are required for students entering grades 6-12. Summer reading is not required of students entering grades K-5 but we encourage students to continue reading and practicing their skills during the summer months

Additionally, we encourage families to visit the Aston Public Library and explore all they have to offer.

The Language Arts Department at Sun Valley High School believes reading enriches a student’s academic experience and greatly rewards future endeavors. Reading over the summer not only strengthens previous learning, but lays the groundwork for the next school year. Summer reading programs support students in the following ways:

  • Previews themes and motifs of upcoming courses
  • Enhances critical thinking and provides enrichment opportunities
  • Commonality of texts promotes student -to- student discussion
  • Introduces an array of genres
  • Encourages them to read for enjoyment
  • Combats the loss of reading achievement over the summer

Note: Summer assignments also appear in your student's Schoology account as Google Docs.
