2023 Summer Reading

 

This summer we are encouraging you to take part in the Governor's Summer Read Challenge. Books have been compiled from leading recommended reading lists. View the list online or pick up a complete list in the Library Media Center before summer begins!

We encourage you to use our online E-book and audiobook feature, SORA, to check out books. Log in with your Vernon Schools Email address or download the Sora App to your mobile device. 

We also encourage you to visit Rockville Public Library this Summer. Go get a library card to gain access to books, resources, and more. Check out their summer programming here. 

You can also play along with their Teen Book Bingo to earn prizes!
