My Project

Our classroom is in need of a diverse collection of novels that will inspire students to take ownership of their reading and learning. By funding this project, you'll be helping us provide more choice, allowing students to explore books that resonate with their interests and experiences. This autonomy is crucial for fostering a love of reading, especially in middle school, where engagement can make or break a student's academic journey. Your support will empower students to discover stories that ignite their curiosity, build confidence, and improve their literacy skills—setting them on a path to lifelong learning.
