My Project

This project will give every student the opportunity to choose a brand-new book to take home at the end of the school year. Allowing students to select a book that matches their interests builds excitement around reading and helps create meaningful reading experiences beyond the classroom. Ending the school year with a book in hand encourages students to continue reading for fun throughout the summer and return to school confident and motivated.“This simple gift supports literacy growth, promotes equity, and helps prevent summer learning loss for all students school wide.
