My Project

The students at my school are so fascinated each and every time we get new books in our library. They are amazed at the different types of texts and books that are actually out there! This project will bring current biographies into our school library such as Taylor Swift and will also bring a new organization system for our biographies through the use of clear, categorized bins.

Your donation will help our biography section come to life!

My hope is that by organizing the biographies into categories such as athletes, artists, and change makers, that students will be more interested in this section of our library.

It is my focus this year to update this library and give students access to as many high quality materials as possible. Some of our biographies are very outdated and do not have the appeal needed to attract young readers. I'm hoping that this project will bring new life to the biography section at our school.
