Beautifying the Library

Help me give my students a beautiful, appealing, and easy to navigate space.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Goralewicz's classroom raised $344

My Project

Last year, our media center was blessed with getting all new furniture and shelving. This year, I would like to add a few finishing touches to not only make it more beautiful, but to help kids find books more easily.

Part of my plan is to create hand-lettered signs to place in the shelves to help kids find books on different topics.

I will also be creating awards to give during the year, and I would like to replace some of the worn-out parts of our plant collection.

The media center is the hub of the school, and my goal is for it to be a place where all students love to come. Creating a beautiful, inspiring, and organized space is the foundation of that goal.
