Allen Eagle football players, athletic trainers and cheerleaders completed their annual Reading with the Eagles tour, visiting 14 Allen ISD elementary campuses during the 2026 football season.

The program sends high school athletes and cheerleaders into elementary schools on Fridays before game nights, according to an Allen ISD season recap published Nov. 9. During each stop, the Eagles read books, answered student questions, played games and paraded through hallways.

The visits paired schools together across the season: Cheatham and Lindsey, Marion and Vaughan, Boon and Green, Evans and Preston, Olson and Reed, Norton and Story, and Bolin and Chandler.

Allen ISD called the tradition one that "brings Eagles of all ages together" in an Instagram post about the Olson and Reed visit on Oct. 3.

Before the Evans and Preston stop, the Eagles were preparing to face Southlake Carroll, according to an Allen ISD Facebook video.

The Chandler Elementary visit came near the end of the season. Chandler's school feed noted the Eagles stopped by "before capping off their season undefeated."

That unbeaten regular season included a 48-7 Senior Night win over Plano East on Nov. 7, according to Chandler Elementary's live feed.

The program gave every listed Allen ISD elementary campus at least one visit during the season. Photo galleries from each stop are available through the district's recap page.
