  • A Book for Every Student!

    Funded Jan 31, 2023

    We reached our goal! Thank you so very much for helping my students have more of the resources they need to learn. We truly and literally could not have done this without you -- you've made a big impact on not only this learning year, but many to come. Thank you again!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. O'Brien

  • Classroom Basics

    Funded Mar 21, 2022

    THANK YOU!!! This project was fully funded and I am stoked to have what we need in our classroom. The mailboxes will help us organize ourselves and the pencils and sharpener are just basics that we need every day to stay on top of our work. We are all so excited for these!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. O'Brien

Don't you agree that the books you found the most connection to during your own middle school years were those that had characters with whom you could identify? Please support me in creating a library that reflects the diversity of my classroom, so that each student may find a fictional character from whom they may learn some of life's best lessons. My 8th graders are diverse. Many come from immigrant households with parents who do not speak English at home. I hope to fill my library with books that focus on identity, relationships, and the process of balancing multiple cultures while simultaneously surviving the more typical blunders and obstacles of the notorious middle school years.
