Summer Reading Challenge

All BHMS students (including incoming sixth graders) are invited to take on the Summer Reading Challenge. Find a copy of the books that follow and read them at your leisure over the summer. When you return in the fall youÕll be able to participate in a contest/discussion with other kids about what youÕve read. YouÕll have fun, youÕll read some great books, and youÕll get to meet some other kids next fall. Make it your goal to read them all, but you can still participate in the fall if youÕve finished any four of the titles. Now kick back and start reading! When we start up again in September, listen for announcements and watch the Panther Pause for more information.
