Help me give my students a school library with an excellent selection of Dr. Seuss books since our school is in Springfield, MA, his birthplace, so he is celebrated in our school!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Dawson's classroom raised $475

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Many students are experiencing poverty and related issues, yet they are engaged, curious, and excited about learning. They are a diverse group, representing many different cultures and languages. They love to read and are deserving of books that will feed their imaginations.
My Project
Students at our elementary school are proud that Theodor Geisel (Dr. Seuss) was once a kid growing up in the city of Springfield just like they are .
His books are always popular, and our current library copies are well-worn.
Teachers frequently use them in their classrooms and recommend them to their students. In early March, when we celebrate Dr. Seuss's birthday, it's hard to keep up with the demand.
This collection would help upgrade the Dr. Seuss books in our library, and would be used by the 800 students and teachers at our school for many years into the future.
Nearly all 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
