BB&N Students and Parents:
BB&N Upper School students are expected
to read at least three books over the summer, with most world language
students reading an additional book in that world language.
Below you will find a summary of the
school's summer reading requirements, as well as a link to the summer reading
lists. If you have specific questions, the best answer will probably come
from the academic department head or world language program coordinator.

fiction, general non-fiction, and books in the following subject areas:
