We are thrilled to introduce our suggested summer reading list for elementary students. After a year of hard work, it's crucial to maintain your child's reading levels to prevent the "summer slide." Your support is vital in ensuring this doesn't happen. Encouraging your child to read just 20 minutes a day can significantly impact their success next year. The Plainfield summer reading list offers a variety of options, including fiction, non-fiction, informational texts, and how-to books. Click Here for those recommended lists, or Check the District page's Parents section. Happy Reading!
