Sora App

SORA provides access to nearly 2000 popular book titles. About 25% of the books are “unlimited simultaneous use” which means they are always available for checkout! There are eBooks and Audiobooks for students of all ages.

Students can download and install the SORA reading app on their iPad or Smartphone (see instructions). They can also access SORA through Classlink on their chromebook or on a computer. (see instructions) Students with a Kindle Fire can access the eBook collection using the Overdrive app.

Learning for Students

We're compiling a list of resources for student learning while school is cancelled, so that students can remain occupied, can continue to develop, and can keep learning! These links to education lessons, websites and other resources DO NOT replace any classroom learning or assigned homework, but rather are additional ways for students to continue to develop their minds while away from school for extended times.
