Dallas ISD libraries help power learning every day. From literacy and reading access to digital resources, STEM, innovation, research, and discovery, our libraries support students with the tools and opportunities they need to learn, explore, and grow.

Literacy/STEM Station Rotation here at JLE! 📚🔬 This is where learning comes alive—students are exploring, creating, thinking, and having so much fun while staying fully engaged! @DISD_Libraries @DISDLibDirector @Region5_DISD @JackLoweSrES @DanforDISD

Let them think what they want. Let them say what they will. I’m not shrinking, explaining, or performing for approval anymore. “Let them”… and then let ME choose peace, purpose, and alignment every single time 💭✨ Inspired by Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins #LetThem

When it comes to learning, I’m all in—always putting myself in position to grow, evolve, and elevate. #lifelong_learning #smu #readingfun #literaryintensive

This week, our Pre-K friends stopped by for a special visit and tour of the library! 📚 They explored the space, learned how to care for books, and enjoyed a fun read-aloud together.🤩 @DISD_Libraries @DISDLibDirector @Region5_DISD @JackLoweSrES

We are so grateful for our continued partnership with Rainbow Days! Mr. Willis delivers incredible social and emotional learning lessons that are meaningful, fun, and highly engaging for our students. His work truly makes a difference in helping our students grow! 💙✨

April is School Library Month and I need to brag on the librarians of Dallas ISD @DISD_Libraries . What they're doing for students across this district isn't just impressive. It's transformational. A thread about the REAL impact happening in Dallas ISD libraries every single day. 🧵👇 #SchoolLibraryMonth #DallasISD @NicoleWBixby @DrElenaSHill @Dallasacademics

At JLE, we’re growing more than readers—we’re growing leaders 💚🌱 Kinder and 5th grade scholars shared a special moment outdoors, nurturing our raised garden with care, teamwork, and love. Thank you @texashealth for planting seeds that reach far beyond the soil

So very grateful to be in a role and environment where people genuinely care. In just a few short months, I’ve felt so loved and appreciated on my campus—today is School Librarian Day… what a beautiful way to begin National School Library Month! 💛📚 #GratefulHeart

At Jack Lowe, we are READY for National Library Month! 📚✨ We’re starting STRONG with our Spring Reading Challenge—let the reading begin! 🤩🔥 @JackLoweSrES

The Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Dallas alumnae showed up in force for our school board meeting!

@DISDLibDirector This is so amazing to see!🤩

Dallas ISD libraries are making a difference. When students have access to engaging books, inviting spaces, and librarians who know how to connect readers with the right materials, reading grows. School libraries remain one of the strongest tools we have to support literacy. @DISD_Libraries @DrElenaSHill @AngieGaylord @NicoleWBixby @TabathaRobb1

This week’s PLC Highlight: Elementary Library Media and Literacy Specialists focused on building knowledge and boosting comprehension through intentional story time in Dallas ISD libraries. When read-alouds align with elementary curriculum, story time becomes more than a library moment. It strengthens comprehension, builds vocabulary, expands background knowledge, and helps students make meaningful connections to classroom learning. These literacy experiences bring books to life while supporting confident, curious, and engaged young readers. Thank you, @MackinVIA, for your partnership in supporting meaningful literacy experiences for students, and thank you to author @mariapwalther for an incredible professional learning session and for creating a book that helps bring learning, language, and understanding to life. @DISDLibDirector @Dallasacademics @dallasschools @TransformDISD @DrElenaSHill @NicoleWBixby @AngieGaylord

We are enjoying our Book Vending Machine at JLE! 📚 What a delight it is to see the smiling faces of students who earned their Golden Coin and selected a brand-new book. @DISD_Libraries @DISDLibDirector @Region5_DISD @JackLoweSrES @DanforDISD @drrosenid

Grateful for all of our wonderful Read Across America volunteers! 📚 Your time, stories, and encouragement made a lasting impact on our scholars! @DISD_Libraries @DISDLibDirector @Region5_DISD @JackLoweSrES @DanforDISD @drrosenid

Thank you, Ms. Bowles and Mr. Rivers, for joining our campus to celebrate Read Across America Week! Your time, energy, and support mean so much to our students and staff. We appreciate you helping us inspire a love for reading! 📚✨

Day One of Read Across America was a joyful success! 📚 We were honored to welcome Board Trustee Dan Micciche, who read to our Kindergarteners. Students loved exploring rhymes, silly words, and celebrating literacy together. ❤️✨
