We Want To Read!
Funded Sep 30, 2019
We appreciate your generosity. These books will impact my students’ lives greatly. We now have a truly diverse bookshelf and I know my students are grateful to have these gifts to share and read all year long! We can’t wait to get started! Thank you again very much! Amazing!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Ruiz

Having access to books about people from all walks of life can promote motivation, goal-setting, and inspiration. I am asking for all kinds of texts for our classroom library. We do not have many titles to choose from and we could use some help. Our curriculum is really about teaching students to engage in non-fiction texts but students really need to have a balance of fiction also. My students are desperate to engage in texts that are different and trending. High school students are now into reading self-help books which shows that they feel that there's something missing. For independent reading, I want my students to have a wide variety of texts to choose from and we could use your help!
