Books your girls are reading this semester

Antigua Jumping
Dear TTS21 Parents and Friends,

We've had a few parents request a reading list for this semester. Of course, as the Dean of Students and Academics, this request thrills me! I believe it will be a terrific way for you, as parents, to better understand you're daughter's journey this semester if you take a moment to read from some of the materials. So, here you go!
