TIME TO GET STARTED ON YOUR SUMMER READING!
 
Smoky Hill High School believes all students should engage in reading over the summer to keep their minds ready for learning. We encourage every Smoky Hill student to read books that excite their imagination and get them ready for learning in the fall.

To that end, all honors, IB MYP, AP, and IB DP English classes have required summer reading. Click HERE for a print-friendly version of the list to the right. Students will be responsible for finishing these books before school starts so that they are ready for assessment.
