Elementary School
Our summer reading selections this year are sure to ignite your child’s imagination! The teachers at GHS have selected books based on the genre of fantasy for each child to read over the summer. Research has shown that reading at least 6 books over the summer will help your child avoid losing those reading skills they developed over the school year. Please have your child read or read with your child the selected book as well as at least 5 additional titles over the summer months. Record those books on the GHS Summer Reading log and return to school at the beginning of the 2011-2012 school year.
