[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boy talk about self-absorbed. You specifically want a high school with over 500 incoming Freshmen to select a book that your child has not read? My Deal student did not read this in middle school and since Deal is the largest feeder to Wilson HS, it seems safe to assume that a large number of the incoming Freshmen have not read this book as a class assignment. Lord of the Flies is a classic book about adolescence. It also contains a fair amount of violence that some would say makes it inappropriate for middle school students. [/quote] I did a quick search online and Blair HS just across the DC/MD has a brochure in which they specifically state not re-reading books that you read in middle school [under the Choosing What To Do section]. In fact, the books in which you can read. No, the OP is not being selfish. https://mbhs.edu/departments/english/2019%209th%20summer%20PDF.pdf [/quote]
