My Students
My students are bright groups of scholars and leaders who are ready to take on the year at Montgomery’s first charter school. This enthusiastic group of learners are eager to try more rigorous instruction in reading and math. Our classroom is a warm place for engaged, exciting experiences. We want to ensure every learner has equal access to quality, individualized, learning materials. A majority of our students will need assistance with greater access to diverse materials that they can easily engage with and get excited about.
My Project
Having access to these books will help to increase exposure to new vocabulary and excitement for the world of adventure new books bring. Our students have daily, required twenty minutes of reading but everyone doesn’t have access to the same quality of books. We want to make it easy to select and read books throughout the academic day when finished with class assignments. They also need books to take home and read for pleasure. Without a school library, our classroom library will be just the resource needed to increase literacy skills which is an essential skill for academic success. This library will help our fifth graders “meet” the world's best authors and hear stories that can help shape their world.
More than half of students from low‑income households
