Summer Reading List 2009 - Test Option

	AWHS SUMMER READING 2009 -- For those choosing the test option 	

	Tests on the summer reading begin on Nov. 17.  The delay was 
caused by the impasse of the budget in Harrisburg which held up 
the Act 90 orders for our school.  Students are coming to the 
library with their math teacher.  The test consists of 10 
randomly selected questions and students must get 7 of the 10 
questions correct to pass the test.  If a student fails on the 
first attempt, he or she may come back one more time to try to 
test on that book again.  If a student fails the second attempt, 
they must choose another book from the reading list and pass the 
test on the new selection.  Additional tests will have to be 
taken on the student's own time -- usually during lunch periods.  
To see when you are scheduled to take the test, consult the 
Special Events Icon.  Any senior who is not currently enrolled in 
a math class must come during their lunch period to take the test.
