How many books did we check out?

We have checked out a total of 13,690 books so far this year. Wow! That's an average of 866 books per week from September 2012 - December 2012. Way to go, Irving readers! I am excited to see how many books we will check out by the end of the year.

Students in grades K-3 are generally allowed to have 4 items at a time. Students in grades 4-5 can have 6.

Keep reading together, Irving families. You are off to a great start.

Help bring the Burpee Home Gardens "Grow Anywhere Tour" to Irving School!

We have been selected as a candidate for the Burpee Home Gardens “Grow Anywhere Tour”! The voting aspect of the process will officially begin on January 7th when Burpee will have the Facebook voting page up and running!  If you do not have a Facebook, it is ok!  There is no need to have a Facebook account to vote!  Simply go to the following link to vote for your school www.facebook.com/BurpeeGardens.

We can do it! The Burpee Home Gardens food truck is coming our way this Spring … and we’re ready to give it a big Irving School welcome. But we’ve all got to vote! If we win, the truck will deliver 1,300 lbs. of fresh produce, plus 50 plants for our school and 450 for our community. The Burpee Home Gardens representatives will also be on hand to share their knowledge so we can grow the plants successfully. Best of all, there’s no cost to our community! Spread the word to your friends, family and neighbors – share the link and get their votes, because every vote counts!




To help bring the tour to Irving School, go to www.facebook.com/BurpeeGardens and vote for us!  The voting page will stay open until February 15th, so vote early and vote often!
