My Project

Nothing captivates a teenager quite like an unputdownable story. To keep our students engaged and reading, we have launched a DonorsChoose campaign: "Epic Adventures & Wild Thrillers to Keep Students Reading!"

Our goal is to refresh our library with high-interest titles that cater to every student in our school.

Teen literacy is not one-size-fits-all, which is why this collection features a wide spectrum of books. We are stocking everything from fast-paced graphic novels and comics that hook reluctant or struggling readers, to thrilling 400+ page novels for our voracious bookworms who devour entire series in a single weekend.

Fresh, suspenseful books offer a healthy escape from screens while building critical literacy and confidence. However, we cannot build this diverse collection without community support.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
