Library Books and Resources

Funded Sep 24, 2021

I wanted to let you know how much the students at my school enjoy seeing themselves represented! One day, we had a new pre-kindergarten student come to visit the library. For the first week or two that this little one visited, we read books with animal characters. The next week, I read a book that featured a young girl that looked like him. His eyes got big, and he just stared at the book as I read. It really impacted him.

This is just an example of the many ways our students appreciate being represented. Many of our students have taken the opportunity to learn about characters that may be different than their lives. Additionally, teachers are happy to see books that represent their students.

I made sure to purchase some bilingual books with the donation. Bilingual books are always in demand at our school. We have a lot of voracious readers. I want you to know that your donation has made an impact. I sincerely thank you!”

With gratitude,

Ms. Fenter
