Students are excited to participate in the 15th Annual Summer Reading Contest, where they can share what they are reading in The Times and explain why they enjoy it. This year, there is a new twist – students can enter by writing a short response or creating a 90-second video. The contest will run from June 7 to August 16, giving plenty of time for students to get creative.

If you’re a teacher looking to get your students involved early, the only requirement is that the piece they choose to discuss must have been published in 2024. The topic can be anything from cats to college costs, Beyoncé to banana bread. The goal is to hear their thoughts and opinions on what they are reading.

For those with questions about the contest, all the details can be found below. Whether you’re a seasoned participant or a newcomer, there is something for everyone to enjoy. And for teachers wanting to prepare their students in advance, a special practice forum has been created to help them get started.
