Building Tomorrow's Future One Book at a Time

My students need 41 contemporary reading novels of all size, genres, and levels.

Mrs. McCurry Armorel High School
Blytheville, AR Grades 6-8

My Jr. High students have a thirst for books that I cannot satisfy with my current selection of classroom books.

We do not have books readily available in our library or classrooms. Some students are not able to afford to purchase books on their own.

I honestly need books, books and more books of all genres and authors! By providing books for all students I will help promote a lifelong love of reading.

With your help we can strive to enrich tomorrow's future one book at a time by creating and instilling a love of reading.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
