My Project

One of the things I love about our students is their heart. As a group of diverse, special-education students, they sometimes struggle with the understanding and practice of diversity and inclusion.

With library books that focus on these needs, we can encourage students to read about experiences and characters that mirror their own, and provide a window into lives different from theirs.

We can also teach diversity and inclusion focused lessons based on books that make the impact personal and relatable. Our hope is that these lessons and personal readings will encourage our students to understand and practice inclusion in the classroom and beyond.
