My Project
I would like to provide diverse young adult books to my students. These books are engaging and hook students to reading. Many of my students have already been asking for some of these titles because they are interested in reading them, but we do not have a library in our school. I believe that if my students have access to these types of books, more of them will be hooked on reading and will come back to read more in a series or by the same author.
These young adult books that I have chosen are books that I know my students will enjoy reading and will come back to search for books in the same genre or by the same author.
I am always looking to refresh my classroom library with new books. Since we have no other library in my school, I'm hoping to have more books in my classroom library, so they can be accessible to any student in my school.
I also have noticed that the more books I have in my library, the more students come looking for books. I am so grateful that I can provide so many great titles because of help from donors like you.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
