Seven Hills rising 9th-12th-grade students selected and received copies of their summer reading books in May. Students who are new to Seven Hills should select a book among the choices in the document below. In August, Upper School students will attend multi-grade discussion groups with a member of our faculty and other students who selected the same title.
Students taking British Literature Honors (10th grade), American Literature Honors (11th grade) or AP English Literature (12th grade) should refer to the document below for any additional books that may be required for those classes.
The Upper School does not provide a list of required school supplies. Upper School teachers will advise students of specific items needed for their classes. Note that most Upper School math and many science classes require students to have a graphing calculator. School supplies (but not graphing calculators) may be purchased in the Seven Hills Spirit Shop. More information about the Spirit Shop and about allowing your student to have charging privileges follows.
Visit gostingers.com for news, sports schedules, team rosters, and more. Team sign-up information can be found in the Resources section of the gostingers.com home page. Contact the Athletics Department administrative assistant, Amy Ilg, at amy.ilg@7hills.org or 513-504-4094 with any questions.
