My Project

Our school district boasts the most diverse student population in our state and is the fifth most diverse district in the country!

It is our mission in the library to make sure that every child can see themselves well-represented on our shelves, doing the things that can make this planet a better place.

Living in the Pacific Northwest, nature and the environment are important areas of study for our students. Access to books that help kids understand the importance of preserving, and even improving, our environment creates critical thinkers and doers as adults.

Ms. Lind
Grades 3-5
