Hello Donors! My name is Taylor Kessler and I am a first year teacher at Iowa Maple Elementary school in the Cleveland Metro School District. I teach all middle grades (6-8) in ELA and I also teach one session of social studies to my 8th graders. The reason I am on here is that I am seeking a library of books for my young readers. Being a first year teacher, my library is slim and this puts me in a peculiar spot. My students sport a WIDE variety of reading abilities and I would absolutely love to get them an adequate plethora of books! "I call my students 'my kids' because in our year together they aren't just kids on my class rosters, they become a part of my heart"
