Students entering into the English Pre-AP program for the 2014-2015 school year are required to read the following novel for the respective grade level:
9th grade - To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
10th grade - Lord of the Flies by William Golding
11th grade - Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
If a novel cannot be purchased or obtained at the local library, students should contact their current/former teacher or come by the Naiser Building, Room 15, to sign out a copy of the novel for the summer. Any books lost or damaged will incur a fine comparable to the novel checked out.
Students enrolled in EBISD for the 2013-2014 school year signed an acknowledgement form prior to leaving for the summer. A test will be given the first week of school covering basic comprehension, character motivation, language devices, and other grade appropriate questions.
Thank you,
