In 1987, the Nevada Department of Education began a statewide initiative for Nevada teachers and librarians to celebrate reading through shared thematic activities. Nevada Reading Week usually begins during the last week of February and coincides with the birthday of Dr. Seuss. Many of our local celebrities, parents and community members participate in the festivities by telling stories and reading to our students.
Nevada Reading Week for the 2025-2026 school year will take place from March 2, 2026, through March 6, 2026. The Nevada Reading Week theme is Book An Adventure.

T-shirts of the winning student design will be available for sale. Please watch for information later in the year.
