Ms. Wood from Cleveland TN is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Be Tuff and Read!

Help me give my students an Outsiders book by S.E. Hinton to read inside and outside of school to inspire the love of reading. I also need a Chromebook to Zoom with students during the pandemic.

My Students

Our school strives to inspire and motivate all students to be learners in and outside of the classroom. Every student possesses their own strengths whether it be in leadership, behavior, athletics, or academics. The students in my classes strive for excellence. They do their best to improve in all areas of their school life.

My classes consist of 65 fabulous students.

My Project

The Outsiders is such a great novel to inspire middle school students both boys and girls alike to read. I always say that reading is to the mind as exercise is to the body. If students find one book at this age to love, then that love will grow and they will become better learners.

The Chromebook will be used to Zoom with my students in and outside of school so that I can keep track of their learning and reading during this pandemic that has drastically changed the way we help our students learn and grow as individuals.
