Rose Hill supports literacy by providing a summer reading program for all students.
Our students get a head start in the fall by coming prepared to discuss books they have read over the summer, and can immediately begin the process of literary analysis. Specific grade level requirements are provided through the links below.
Reading lists for 6th-8th graders have been broken into three categories, depending on grade level. Books at the "standard level" are at the grade level equivalent for the grade that they represent. Any book listed as "approaching standard" will be at an easier reading level and any book listed as "above standard" may be more difficult reading or have more mature content.
This summer, students are asked to please read one book from the appropriate grade level Summer Reading list below. There is a link to a reading response form to fill out below, and it is due the first day of school. The novels represent various genres and reading levels and will be the book list for Battle of the Books 2019-20.
If you would like to choose a challenge option, please read two books; at least one book should be from the challenge list.
