Support Ms. Klidonas' classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
My students come from all cultural backgrounds but unfortunately they do not have the means of buying their own books and it makes teaching a little more difficult since we can only use books that are in our school library. At my school over 90% of the students are eligible for free or reduced priced lunch which means they live at or below the poverty line with minimal resources to improve on their learning experience. The majority of the 10th grade classes are comprised of students that are severely below grade reading level. They are, for the most part, motivated to succeed and I am certain they will feel privileged if they were given their own copy of the book we will be reading in class.
