My fellow reading teacher and I are so impressed with all that our students are learning this year! They are so proud of their success and we are proud of them. They are loving learning the skills they need to read fun books! In addition to focusing on reading skill, we also strive to encourage reading enjoyment!
The books in this project will be given to our first grade students at the end of the school year so they have summer reading material!
We would like to provide each student with a copy of David Goes To School, a very popular title with the kids! This book is a favorite read aloud in their classrooms and one they choose over and over from the library!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
