My Project

My students love coming to my library, and they LOVE to read books. I absolutely love my students. Many students ask me to buy books on a weekly basis. They will be so appreciative of these books and bins and they will read them.

Some students feel loved most when they receive gifts.

That's what makes incentives so important in my library. These are favorites that quickly run-out of our treasure box. I appreciate your support of public school students and the library! Your generosity makes a tremendous difference for our school.
