Reading Anytime, Anywhere this Summer
With VUSD's OverDrive ebook and audiobook collection, the digital library is always open. Through OverDrive's Summer Reads program, the digital library expands to include 30 free audiobooks and ebooks for simultaneous use available through OverDrive's Sora app from June 6th-August 15th. Students can access the Sora app through Clever and take their summer reads wherever summer takes them!
VUSD Summer Library Fun
VUSD has 16 libraries open between June 11th and July 18th and Tipper is coming to each of our elementary libraries open this summer. Check out Tipper's schedule below and bring your Rawhide bookmark/reading log for Tipper to swap out for baseball tickets! All students are welcome (with their parents/guardians) to any of the libraries open this summer and can check out books, even if it is not their home school they are visiting.
