My Project

Students will read about individuals who are inspiring and do it in a comfortable environment. They will sit as if they are in a library reading and allowing the books to take them on a journey. They will go into an unfamiliar world that one day could actually be their own world.

While on the expedition of exploring scholars will feel a sense of belonging to a community that excepts all.

They will read and write powerful pieces to enhance their learning experience. They will also explore the content and techniques of the writers that they will be reading. Moreover, the scholars will have fun while learning new concepts and ideas.
