My Project

The students of I.S.201 are a rainbow of different cultures and ethnicities. I would love to give the students within I.S. 201 the opportunity to have access to reading materials to help them cope with the ever-changing feelings they encounter through adolescence as well as a world that changes regularly.

In this ever-changing world, my students continue to grow and change with the times.

These books will help create a library of books for my students to openly have access to helpful and informative texts to help them with their social and emotional state.

The books include topics like coping with stress, the LGBTQ community, family issues, and building self-confidence and self-expression.
