School Summer Reading
Curtis Middle School
There is no required summer title, though students are expected to read at least three books. Massachusetts Children’s Book Award (MCBA) and Massachusetts Teen Choice Book Award (MTCBA) nominee lists are also a great source, and we have both collections of these titles available at Goodnow.
