Help me give my students new books to capture their imaginations and take them on new journeys!

My Students

My students are uniquely wonderful; bright, funny, curious, talkative, shy, athletic, brave, optimistic, and charming! They have a zest for life and learning. Unfortunately, they have missed almost two years of face-to-face instruction and team sports due to Hurricane Michael, followed by the pandemic.

With your help, I would love to provide them with new books to expand the available library.

My Project

I am requesting a variety of books for our library. These books will open doors and minds! We live in a very rural area. I want to help my students relate ideas and thoughts to other areas, to expound on what they know and ask questions to deepen their understanding of the world they know. I also want them to dream about their futures and the places and things they would like to experience.

With these books my students will be able to experience other places, cultures and ideas, and dream big dreams about their futures!
