[CASL-L] Summer Reading 2021

Greetings, All!

Here's a folder link to Summer Reading 2020 information used at Simsbury
High School this past year:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1pcJ4lQL6BUcV7bScLVx7nCLHZa35qnJO?usp=sharing

Most info comes directly from our English Dept. staff. The "Digital Books"
Doc is one I put together after securing digital copies of a number of
recommended books and Nutmeg titles once we went to remote learning for the
remainder of the year.

Please let me know if you have any questions, and good luck; be well!
