My Project
Going into the unknown can be scary. This is especially true for young children when they are starting school. New people, places, and things can overwhelm.
Books that relate to real life can help children learn and understand what is going on around them.
This project is for books for my students who are going to Kindergarten next year and students who are incoming next year. The books talk about what to expect when they start school. They will be provided to the children and their families to read together and hopefully help ease the transition.
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
