Fresh Books For Fall

Help me give my students fresh books for the fall. These are some of the most popular titles in my room. They get well loved every year and there are always a few that just fall apart.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Roberts's classroom raised $556

My Project

My 9th and 12th-grade students grow as readers through daily reading time. The books in this project are our most popular titles that always have waiting lists and get worn out from being read by 10-15 students each year.

These favorite books connect with teens, starting great talks about who they are and how they see the world.

New copies make sure students don't miss out because of torn pages or broken spines.

For my freshmen, these books help them explore big ideas in ways they can understand. For seniors, they offer important thinking points before graduation. When students find books they truly like, they become more confident readers.

By replacing our most-read titles, you're making sure future students can enjoy these life-changing stories too. Your help will reach hundreds of students who will read these books in the years ahead, spreading a love of reading far beyond just one class.
