Incoming tenth grade students have no assigned summer work. If you wish to read during the summer, this list provides titles at grade level that may provide enjoyment. Reading is one strategy that is helpful in preparation for the rigor involved in completing assigned work in Honors English 10AB. If you have questions or concerns, you may e-mail me at jcarmicl@lausd.net during the summer break.
