Students have worked hard all year to make progress in specific areas.
Here are some resources and ideas to help keep skills sharp!
Academics
The best thing you can do this summer is to read at least one choice book! Reading often helps improve your vocabulary and maintain your stamina. Build up how long you can read without interruption or checking a device! Goal: 20 minutes at a time!
See below for suggestions for grade level books and library access.
Library:
Summer Hours: Wednesday, June 15th from 10:00 – 12:00 and on July 25th from 10:00 – 2:00.
We have an exciting reading service available through Sora, the student reading app, which provides free 24/7 access to ebooks and audiobooks. What better way to engage your student’s mind than through reading?
Starting May 4 – August 17, 2022, the Sora Sweet Reads program will offer a collection of Juvenile and Young Adult titles that will be prominently displayed in Sora for quick and easy unlimited access. Check out the collection for yourself through the NISD Portal!

Northwest ISD offers a variety of summer opportunities so students can stay engaged and keep learning while school is out.
Research shows that as much as two months of math and reading skills can be lost during summer break. But it only takes a couple of hours a week of learning for students to avoid the summer slide. We encourage students to continue to read books and take advantage of the break to explore their interests and learn something new!
Visit www.nisdtx.org/summer for a list of opportunities available this summer for elementary and secondary students, including creative problem-solving camps, athletic camps, fine arts camps, summer reading and more.
Plus, you can take your kids on a virtual vacation through the Learning That Takes You Places site. Students get to virtually explore a variety of cultures and locations around the world by reading, discussing, writing, reflecting and extending their learning, all while incorporating aspects of STEM, CTE, athletics and fine arts.
