Re: A Modern Reading List for High School?
"Don Quixote," "Robinson Crusoe," "Pride and Prejudice," and "Crime and Punishment" should all be required reading for 9-10th grade. "Romeo and Juliet" would be a good start for Shakespeare, and I would save Hamlet and the other plays for later grades.
Also, something by Stephen King would stimulate them enough to get them into the habit of reading.
