My Project

These books will supplement our school library and give students contemporary choices in what they read! Having a quality book, especially in hard cover, will enrich students' reading experience.

Help students grow in their love of the written word.

School libraries can be a place where students develop new creative expression while increasing skills that will serve them their whole lives. Thank you in advance for giving our students more choice and better quality reading material.

Help build our library! Reading deepens understanding in all subjects and the arts. I look forward to helping my students learn more about the subjects they love.
