My Project

Please help me bring fun and engaging books to my library! Our students are thirsty for new books. By the time our students have reached 5th and 6th grades, they have read almost everything in our school library! We need more books!

These books will help keep my students’ love of reading alive by providing new books that to spark their imagination and keep them engaged readers!

Thank you for supporting our students and helping them develop a love of reading! Reading is the key to a successful academic future. You are helping make this possible. Thank you!
