Summer Reading List

Summer 2017

 

Dallas Academy middle school students do not have specific required summer reading; however we do expect students to read over the summer. We offer a list of suggested books and hope your students will read at least two books from the list. Exposure to a variety of genres is an important component in the development of lifelong readers.
