Each LHS student is required to read a minimum of one novel from the approved options.

NEW FOR 2012 -- You may choose ANY of the titles on the list. There are no longer grade level restrictions!

Students entering an HONORS or ADVANCED PLACEMENT level course are given required readings in addition to the general options.
