Classroom Library Needs Help!

Funded Sep 10, 2024

I offer a HUGE, heartfelt THANK YOU. The new books you purchased have encouraged my seventh grade students to read more and read often. This is no small achievement in the current environment with a phone or screen available at almost all times. The books I now have on my shelves are making the rounds among students because they are book talking, sharing recommendations, and actually conversing ABOUT books and authors they enjoy. All of it is inspiring and makes this teacher's heart very happy. While many were on a waiting list for Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds, I encouraged them to try other new titles, and many wound up loving Louder Than Hunger by John Schu. It now has a waiting list!

My sincere thanks to each and every one of you who helped support my students by ensuring they have access to new, relevant, and engaging titles and authors.”

With gratitude,

Ms. Collins
