Help me give my students opportunities for advanced reading groups by reading literary classics.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Harris's classroom raised $459

My Project
Help us inspire advanced middle school readers with classic literature! We seek to provide group sets of timeless books such as “A Raisin in the Sun” and “The Outsiders” to engage students in critical thinking and literary analysis. Classic literature challenges young readers with rich language and complex themes, enhancing their vocabulary, comprehension, and analytical skills.
By exploring diverse perspectives and historical contexts, students will develop a deeper appreciation for literature and its impact on society.
Your support will give them the tools to excel academically and grow as thoughtful, empathetic individuals. Join us in fostering a lifelong love of reading!
More than half of students from low‑income households
