Bilingual Book Group

Students who choose to participate in the Spanish / English Bilingual Book Group will read this selection. If interested in participating in this group, see Ms. Dacey, the World Language Department Chair, to register.

⭐ The summer reading committee chooses books based on the variety of interests, experiences, and identities of BHS students. The texts include a wide range of topics. Some books on the list explore difficult and/or sensitive subject matter. Before choosing a text, be sure to read a review and look up the topic(s) it explores. Discuss the book options with your family or guardians to help you decide which books are best for you.
