My Students

My students live in Nashville, TN, but come from all over the world. Our classroom is in a unique school filled with students of various backgrounds, cultures, and ethnicities. Together these students strive for academic excellence by living out our core values everyday: responsibility, respect, empathy, persistence, and gratitude.

We have so many students on different levels and need high quality library books to meet all of their needs.

I have seen my students' eagerness to learn take off when they find that perfect book. With your help, we could stock up on a variety of books to meet each child’s optimum learning level.

My Project

My former students fell in love with reading the Harry Potter series. They loved on the books so much that they copies fell apart. I would love to give the gift of magic, witches, and wizards to my upcoming classes with a brand new set of books.

Through the love of the Harry Potter series my students have become fervent readers for life!

I have witnessed so many of my students' confidence in reading grow by reading this fun series. With your help I can purchase a new set to have more students fall in love with this wonderful story!
