My Students

Our school hosts kindergarten through fourth grade, and this year our motto is, "Success Through Innovation!" One way our students are building a successful future is by coming to the library each day to check out new books and continuing to fuel their love for reading and learning. Each day students from all grades come to the library to find new books to check out, read, and fall in love with. And what a joy it is to get to see!

My Project

Having the crayon and marker supplies for the library classroom will help to ensure that students can create fun and relevant connections to books that we are reading, things we are learning about, and help to give them a voice to express themselves.

We look forward to continued creations that help to make learning fun and relevant for students of all age levels, but these supplies will especially help our younger children who are better at communicating through pictures rather than words.

These supplies will be used for class projects and individual student assignments to help enrich their school experience.
