My Project

Students love reading Graphic Novels! For the past three years in a row, Dog Man has been the winner of our school March Madness Reading competition.

I am requesting assorted Graphic Novel series of books for my students to check out from the school library

Our library is a beloved place at our school. Unfortunately, many of our books are outdated and our students are not interested in them. I would love to give the library a little update with current book titles.

As the School Librarian I have tried tried to get a large amount of high demand books returned that were checked out before COVID-19, but many students have lost them or moved or graduated from our school.. Yes, the aftermath of COVID is still going strong! These books need to be replaced. If this project is funded, I will able to replenish my Graphic Novel section of the Library. Thank you so much for supporting public schools.
