Romance Books for the Library!
Funded Mar 25, 2025I can't thank you enough for your generous donations! This project was funded the fastest out of any project we've completed for the speech room yet! I am so proud of how much buy in we've gotten this year into outside reading with the addition of the speech room library and the reading race that we've implemented. Students love coming to browse through the books, and get so excited to tell me all about the stories when they're done. With the addition of these romance books, expanding genre will draw even MORE readers in. The individual whiteboards will be SO useful in our prefix/root/suffix analysis lessons as students continue to build their language skills. I am truly so thankful for your donation-- it makes all the difference.”

Funded Sep 11, 2024Thank you so much for your generous contributions to our classroom. Without you, our students would truly be in the dark (or even worse! in a classroom that was too harshly lit!). They have described the speech room this year as a "zen" space that they look forward to learning in on the days that they have speech. It has truly fostered a community feeling in the space, and inspired students to make it their own as they are proud to display their work on the walls. The students have made incredible gains this year, and they are always delighted to come to speech-- and it's all because of you!”

Help Start a Speech Student Library!
Funded Jan 7, 2024Thank you so much for your generous donations in helping provide materials, books, and visual aids for the speech room at LACJ. The students are enjoying their colorful new pens and post-its, but nothing quite makes a classroom environment like a fresh stack of books! Because of your donations, many of them were able to write an additional essay on To Kill A Mockingbird using the copies of TKAMB from the speech room library to practice their writing and deepen their thinking skills! Many of them were excited to work on a long term project and perfect their reasoning using the copies you so generously provided, and are very proud of the work they were able to produce-- all because of you!
Our speech students are incredibly excited to have a library in the room now. A few have started to borrow books and are excited to see titles that hey have read in past years, as well as books they're excited to read! Thank you so much for your contribution, and for making a difference in their education.”
