My Project

Our classroom community is comprised of a wonderful, curious, and diverse group of students. One of our major academic goals is to support students in developing their independent literacy levels.

We strive to cultivate a love of reading in our classroom, but this means needing to update our library to better reflect our students’ varying interests and reading levels.

We want students to have an excited energy when it comes to reading - we want them to want to read! Nothing makes us happier than to have a student say, "Can you put this book to the side for me?" Your generous donation will help to update our library with the most recent titles - and cross many off our student wish list.
