My Project

At our high school, our English II: World Literature students are eager to delve into narratives that broaden their perspectives and deepen their understanding of global themes. We are seeking support to provide our high-achieving and intellectually curious students with access to essential literary works that not only captivate their imaginations but also stimulate critical thinking and foster a love for literature. With your generous contributions, we aim to acquire 60 copies of Neil Gaiman's "Norse Mythology" and 60 copies of H.G. Wells' "The War of the Worlds." These selections exemplify the richness of cultural heritage and speculative fiction, igniting discussions of themes of mythology, intergalactic encounters, and the human condition.

Our students, with their unwavering dedication to academic excellence and active involvement in extracurricular pursuits, are poised to embark on a literary journey that transcends the confines of the classroom.

They possess a thirst for knowledge and a penchant for critical analysis, making them eager participants in novel study projects that challenge their intellect and broaden their horizons. By integrating these seminal works into our curriculum, we aspire to achieve several goals: an enhanced cultural understanding, stimulated critical thinking, and a cultivated love for literature.

Your support for this project will enrich our students' educational experience and empower them to become thoughtful, empathetic global citizens. Together, let's inspire the next generation of literary scholars and critical thinkers. Thank you for believing in our students' potential and investing in their future success.

Mrs. McAnally will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by June 1.
