Before you walk into my school, you may see on paper, we are a Title I school with a majority of students receiving free or reduced price lunch with limited resources for our students. However, what you will see in person is a dynamic group of young, driven leaders, who through The Leader in Me Process are making their mark in our world. We are a Lighthouse Leader in Me/Magnet Fine Arts school, which has helped transform all of our students into global thinkers who believe they have a chance in life.
My Project
With a class set of the book Wonder, my students will be able to learn to judge a person by more than just their outward appearance. They will also be able to learn about various points of view.
I believe this will help my students become more compassionate leaders of our community while improving their reading comprehension.
I have students who are at many different reading levels, and I need a wide range of reading level books for the students. The graphic novels, lower level readers, and class set of Wonder will help me reach all my students' reading levels.
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
