GLOUCESTER CATHOLIC HIGH
SCHOOL
SUMMER READING
REQUIREMENTS - SUMMER 2008
Required summer reading books are part of the English program at
Gloucester Catholic. As such, students will be discussing and writing
about these books early in the school year in their English classes. In
addition, they will be tested on them during the first few days of
classes in September or have a project due on the first day of class.
The combined scores of the tests/projects on the required books will be
used as a major test grade in computing their first quarter grades.
Summer reading books are carefully chosen to integrate well with the English
curriculum and they offer students high interest and a challenging, yet
reasonable, reading level.
Reading one or more extra credit books is highly encouraged,
especially for college bound students. Students who choose to read
extra books will be tested on a pass-fail basis and will receive extra
credit toward their first quarter English grade.
