A Cozy Spot to Read: A new classroom rug!

Help me give my students a new rug.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Schreiber's classroom raised $406

My Project

After 21 years in school administration, I am returning to my true passion—teaching in the classroom. My goal is to create a warm, inviting reading area where my students can develop a love for books and reading. Right now, our classroom library lacks a comfortable, dedicated space where all students can gather to enjoy stories together.

With your support, I hope to provide a soft, brand-new classroom rug that will transform our library corner into a cozy haven where students can sit, read, and learn side by side.

This simple addition will help foster a strong sense of community, encourage daily reading, and give every child a space they feel excited to be in.

Every child deserves a safe, welcoming environment to discover the joy of reading. Thank you for helping make that possible for my students!
