This year we will bring the focus back to reading, writing and discussing. My students represent the bottom 10% of students in the State of Tennessee. My goal is to bridge this gap by exposing students to great literature and build their vocabulary and their understanding of the written text. My students do not have the money to support our reading venture and as a teacher, I can not personally fund this project. Please support our project and help me help students develop a love for reading that takes them beyond the stars. Thank you for your support this year.
