"Once you learn to read, you will be forever free" is a quote by Frederick Douglass. Students in our school can attest to this! One attribute that our students share is a love of reading and books; which is why it is so important to get high quality literature and nonfiction into their hands. I am dedicated to keeping up with the interests and abilities of all my students by feeding them a healthy and daily dose of good books and authors. Please help me in this goal of adding important resources to classroom libraries, as well as creating a comprehensive school library--a resource our school does not currently have. Students at schools with better funded library media centers tend to achieve higher average test scores, whether their schools and communities are rich or poor and whether adults in the community are well or poorly educated. (Lance, Welborn and Hamilton-Pennell 1993). Please help me make this happen
