happy pride rainbowWe love celebrating Pride Month in the library. We have so many wonderful books about queer history and theory, as well as memoir, fiction, poetry and graphic novels. Please browse our Pride display in the library or online, below, to find something great to read and celebrate Pride Month with us.

We encourage you to borrow books over the summer. Bring in a bag and we'll help you fill it with books. It has been wonderful working with you this year and we look forward to seeing you in September. Happy reading!

Most AP courses assign required summer work for which students are responsible on the first day of class. Students who move into AP classes over the summer (including the end of the summer) are responsible for this work, too. To start next year comfortably, please complete assignment/s by Tuesday, 8/30/22. Many of these assignments will take some time so please look at them right away so you can plan ahead.  

For the actual assignments, please see the Summer AP Assignments guide on the library website. It is linked on the home page. For your convenience we share the guide with you here:

Summer is a great time to read.

We encourage you to take the time this summer to slow down and read a book or two of your choice. We offer you suggestions here, and also know that your friends and families will suggest other, equally good books to you. We offer you two suggested lists:  the WHS library Suggested Summer Reading List, and the Mass Teen Choice Book Awards nominees where you vote in September to choose the winners. All information is in this library guide:

Did you know that we encourage you to borrow books from the school  library over the summer?  Bring in a bag and we will help you fill it. Also, we recommend you try SORA this summer for free e and audiobooks (yes, listening to audiobooks counts as reading!). Many of the books on these two suggested lists are available in SORA and also in the library. 

Have a great summer and happy reading!

Sincerely,

Ms. Hanson and Ms. Azez
