My Project

Our students are voracious readers, and our library is always in need of more books to keep up with demand, and to continue to foster and support positive reading practices. Your generous donation will provide students with books and reward incentives to encourage and motivate them to keep reading each and every day. A wide variety of contemporary and traditional book choices helps motivate students to develop positive reading habits, and we host a prize drawing at the end of each quarter to reward students for meeting their reading achievement goals!

Mr. Slocum
Grades 6-8
