My Project

These students are special because they love to read to each other, with their families, and with community members. The books in our library are old and we are looking to update our collection.

These books will give everyone new opportunities to make a difference in the small neighborhood community where we live.

Our school library has had a makeover with new paint and furniture, but now we need to update our collection. Students and community members are given opportunities to be involved in our school together, but we would love to provide relevant and exciting books for them to engage in while participating in the activities.
