My Project

There are students in our city and surrounding counties who have everything they need. There are students on the other end of the spectrum that are lacking basic supplies. My school, much like our city, is a diverse and creative community from all walks of life.

I am proud to be a librarian at a school with students who can learn from one another’s cultural and socio-economic differences and family make-up.

We do a lot of activities in the Library and these supplies will ensure that all students have what is needed to complete the activity. To save paper, we use dry erase sleeves with dry erase markers. We use permanent markers with our Ozobot activities. Gallon bags will help store our book sets for book clubs.
