Teaching digital citizenship means meeting @netzerolibrary Ss where they are🎬✨Using media they already watch, like TikTok, Ss evaluate credibility, bias, & misinformation in videos. By connecting real-🌎media to classroom learning, we’re building critical thinkers for life!
From spooky stories to sinking boats, the second six weeks had it all—Sora + Hispanic Heritage Month reads, mystery passages, The Outsiders prep, library clubs, and I even got to support a Lord of the Flies STEM boat building challenge!

Just a little Eagle football game!!! 🦅🩵🏈💚 #ExcellenceInActon #myIrvingISD @IrvingISD @IISDAthletics
Students took on a creepy reading challenge in the library this week - matching haunting passages to their book covers. Careful reading was required for students to match what they read to the images on the covers! Winners took home a zombie hand bookmark 👻
First six weeks at both campuses: 4,000+ books checked out, thousands of online resource uses, 100+ students in clubs each week. Reading, research, and learning are going strong—during the day and after school.
It was great seeing history and STEM come together in Mr. Aldape’s classes this week! Students explored the challenges the colonists faced, came up with solutions, and shared their learning through stop-motion animation. Student focus and engagement were through the roof!
Shoutout to IISD’s amazing Monica Alcaraz @bowiemslibrary for being recognized as the TLA September spotlight librarian! Proud to see Irving librarians leading across the state!
This month's member spotlight features Monica Alcaraz, Library Media Specialist at Irving ISD. From creating innovative storybook walks to co-founding "Double Booked," a Facebook group for librarians managing two campuses, Monica exemplifies leadership and creativity in school…
It was a busy, short week at JMS! After exploring Beanstack with classes, we launched library clubs. 90 students stayed after school yesterday for Gamers’ Club. That’s a lot of students! The energy was good and things got off to a great start. Thanks to @ms_wilken for the help!
This week in the DZ Library, in addition to checking out some good books, classes took on a Beanstalk scavenger hunt. Independent reading is so important, and Beanstack helps add a little fun and a little competition along the way.
It was a big first week for DZ Library clubs! Between Esports and book club, we had over 116 students stay after school. Love seeing the library matter just as much after the bell as it does during the day.
Last week at @netzeroJMS was amazing!! We got to be in one of my personal happy places with @netzerolibrary—and we composed our first ECR, from hook to global insight. 📝📚#excellenceinaction @IrvingISD
We’re on a mission: get kids hooked on a good book! Mysterious wrapped books with exciting hooks await in our newest library display!
We’re thrilled to announce that Kylie Fyfe has been selected as Top 6 Finalist for the TX School Counselor of the Year! Let’s celebrate this incredible honor and the impact Kylie makes every day! See why Kylie is one of the best in Texas! youtube.com/watch?v=vzMFDu…
What if history had taken a different turn? 🕰️📚 8th graders @deZavalaMS reimagined pivotal U.S. events using @CanvaEdu AI image generator to create alternate outcomes—complete with voiceovers! A creative blend of inquiry, tech, and storytelling. @DZ_Library @MrsWilliamsIISD
Research in the library continued this week! @MsDGentry 8th graders researched periods of technological change, while @sls1116 and @peaches_yolanda 6th graders investigated people who fought for important causes. Students dug into some powerful topics and asked great questions!
There was great energy in the library today because science was in the house! So glad to have Ms. Galvan, Ms. Lewins, and @hgzman15 8th grade classes digging into biomes and ecosystems using IISD ‘s premium digital resources!
Fifth six weeks at DZ and JMS was full of impact and library joy! We hosted our first joint JMS/DZ library night, took a busload of students to North Texas Teen Book Festival, supported STAAR success with targeted reading lessons, and had a great launch for our new Beanstack app!
