My Project
My students are curious, thoughtful, and eager to understand the world beyond their own experiences. They ask big questions, care deeply, and thrive when given the chance to connect with real, meaningful stories. These resources—diverse books and classroom supplies—will help them explore multiple perspectives, build empathy, and engage in powerful conversations. Every book will be a window or a mirror: a chance to see into other lives or reflect on their own. With the right tools, they won’t just learn how to read—they’ll learn how to think, feel, and grow.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
