Irving Reads!

Summer is the Perfect Time to Read and Discover!

Irving ISD Libraries

All Irving ISD students can read books of interest to them during the summer. There is not a specific list of titles that must be read for any grade level or class, students may obtain curated lists of reading materials on the “Reading Resources” page of this site.

As a district focused on building a culture of reading, we encourage all parents, staff, and stakeholders to join students in actively reading and discussing their reading.
