This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
We are not just a school, but a community that wants their children to have opportunities above and beyond. The school's neighborhood is filled with organizations that wish the children to succeed, but unfortunately, do not have the financial resources to make it happen.
The elementary school is a Title I school with 100% of our students eligible for free breakfast and lunch.
Every morning, I can honestly say I am grateful to be here because I feel I am part of something bigger.
One of my favorite parts of the morning is when I am driving into school and there are several community members at the park, walking the track, and socializing. It brings a feeling of family!
My Project
Please help expand my classroom library to include graphic novels. These beautifully illustrated stories capture the attention and interest of my students. I want to provide every opportunity for them to pick up a book and enjoy.
The joy of reading should be in every child!
I know from being an educator, that not every student will pick up a chapter book and jump right in. With graphic novels, the illustrations pull the child into the story and capture their attention and build that joy for their future desire to read.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
