My Project

I love how excited my students get when new opportunities are presented to them in the library.

The flexible seating will help some of my wiggly friends stay focused on learning, calm and present.

The puppet theater will bring a new and exciting addition to our read alouds and storytelling events for many years to come.

My students are hungry for reading and fun reading experiences. I want to create lifelong memories and students who are lifelong readers.

I am excited for the new experiences these students will receive because of your generosity.
