My Students

I have the joy of working as the librarian at a school that only works with students ages three to twenty-one with severe/profound intellectual disabilities. Many of the students also have other disabilities including vision and other physical challenges. I work with all 145 students.

The motto at our school is "Those You Think Cannot.... Can!" and that is something that the students show us every day.

They are some of the most amazing students that you will ever meet.

My Project

I work with students who range in age from three to twenty-one at a separate school for low-incidence special needs students. We need more easy readers in our media center. Since my school has such a wide age range of students, we need books that cover a variety of subjects.

My students love books and stories.

Easy reading books will expand my students educational opportunities as well as help them grow a love of literature. These Step Into Reading, I Can Read and Ready-to-Read books will help my students gain an understanding of learning material that they may not otherwise be able to access such as classic books. Thank you so much for your donation
