My Project

A well-equipped library can play a crucial role in promoting literacy among students. By donating to the library, you are helping to create an environment that fosters reading habits and academic success, especially for our English Learners.

Providing inclusive, unconventional, and non-traditional classroom reading materials will encourage students to develop a sense of belonging and empathy.

This diverse background and multicultural books allow students to explore their importance within our school and beyond the classroom. My students come from various backgrounds, and having access to literature to which they can relate will promote a lifelong love for reading.
