“You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.” - Ray Bradbury Since PACE Academy started writing grants for a new library two years ago, the students have been able to enjoy complete series of books purchased through the grant. We would love to continue adding to our library specifically focusing on obtaining more complete series, books for developing readers, and books for the Accelerated Reader program. The students have become intensely involved in the books and express how much they actually enjoy reading. Continuing to add to our small library at PACE will be one way of inviting and enriching students’ time in an alternative setting.
