Literacy for Life: Celebrating Reading!
Literacy for Life is a district and campus initiative - and community-wide partnership - designed to support student literacy needs and a love for reading. North Garland High School is working on campus and across Garland, Rowlett and Sachse to help create a community of lifelong readers.
As part of GISD's Literacy for Life initiative, Garland ISD and the cities of Garland, Rowlett and Sachse have hosted free community-wide events with activities to inspire and transform through the power of literacy.

Library information
The NGHS Library's most important function is to support the school's curriculum and to provide interesting and entertaining books for both students and faculty. To achieve these services, the library maintains a basic reference section, biography collection as well as nonfiction and a large fiction collection.
The NGHS Library's main goal is to help students develop a love of reading to carry them through life for not only educational needs but for enjoyment.
Checking out a book
Students are allowed to check out three books at a time. If the student has an overdue book or a fine, the student will not be allowed to check out additional materials until their status is clear. Books may be checked out for a period of ten days (excluding weekends and holidays).
Library passes
Students are allowed to visit the library before school each morning without a pass. During the school day, students must have a library pass from their teacher, and the student is responsible for stamping in and out of the library.
Fines
After two week grace period, a one dollar fine is charged on overdue books and magazines. The maximum charge is $1.00.
