My Project

Help us give our students books for their home libraries when they earn PBIS rewards for our vending machines. Students can earn books to keep at home of their choice. Students love being able to choose a book from our machine -it is difficult to keep full!

Our students from K-5 all are able to choose a book - so we need a wide variety of picture and chapter books to keep for them.

Our students are able to suggest books to go into the machine, but we love stories that bring together families and strong characters.

Help us share reading with our students and their families. Thank you!
