Sycamore Junior High Summer Reading
Help prevent
summer reading loss by
reading a great book! Studies have shown that
reading proficiency levels can decrease over the
summer. To help lessen the loss of
reading skills, students at Sycamore Junior High are encouraged to keep
reading all
summer. All of the language arts classes at the junior high have
summer reading expectations.
Assignments and instructions are located in
Google Classrooms that students access using their Sycamore student accounts*. See below for the Google Classroom codes. All
summer reading assignments are due on the first day of school.
