Suggested Summer Reading Lists for Rising 6th and 7th Graders
Each student completing grades five through eleven is required to read at least one book during the summer months. The Summer Reading lists contain suggestions for reading; although students may read any other book that is approved by their parents. These lists include a wide variety of books to appeal to the interests and reading levels of many students. Parents are encouraged to review book selections with their children in order to help them make appropriate choices. Students may select books from this list, or they may read a comparable book that is approved by their parents. Additional suggestions can also be found in reading lists developed by Fairfax County Public Library at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/library and Virginia Readers' Choice at http://vsra.org/VRC./html

Are Your Children Safe on the Internet?
The internet is a wonderful tool for education, information, and entertainment, but are your kids safe when they use it? How closely do you monitor its use? Are you up to speed on concerns such as Personal Safety, Cyber Community Issues (including cyber-bullying), Predator Identification, Cyber Security, and Intellectual Property?
