Honors English I: Summer Reading

Dear Honors English I Student,

Welcome to Honors English I! I am excited about starting a new school year with you, so I hope you are excited as well. Starting next school year, we will be reading and writing frequently, as well as improving our communication skills, in order to prepare for the 9th grade End of Course Exam and other tests you will be required to take during your high school career. If you start this school year prepared to work in a fast-paced and challenging environment, and you are open to the concepts we will learn, I firmly believe you will have a fun and rewarding experience in my classroom.

By choosing to enroll in Honors English, you are committing yourself and your time to academic excellence. This includes time for independent reading projects. One of the requirements for Honors English I at SCHS is to complete a reading project to prepare for the year and to give us an opportunity to begin our journey into the world of literature.

I am looking forward to the new school year with you, and I hope you are excited and willing to engage with the diverse works of literature we will explore this coming year. By doing so, my hope is that you will finish this year with a variety of knowledge, skills, and experiences you can take with in your future endeavors. *Please note that 2^nd semester students will turn in this project in the first day of school in JANUARY*

Sincerely,

Alyssa Stanford
