My Project

As the school year comes to a close, we are excited to celebrate the accomplishments of our kindergarten, first, and second grade students during our end-of-year luau celebration! This year, we want to make the event extra special by honoring their hard work and dedication in reaching their reading goals. To celebrate this achievement, we will be giving each student a summer-themed book as a gift, encouraging them to continue their reading journey over the summer break.

We are kindly requesting donations of summer-themed books that are suitable for young readers in kindergarten, first, and second grades.

Books with bright, fun covers and stories about summer adventures, the beach, family vacations, or seasonal activities that students will cherish during their summer away from school. These books will be distributed during the luau celebration as a special treat, and they will help inspire students to keep reading and learning throughout the summer months. Your donation will contribute to making this celebration a memorable and meaningful experience for our young readers!

Ms. Angles will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 20.
