Help me give my students books that will help them grow as readers as well as emotionally.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Butler's classroom raised $628

My Project

Reading is a critical component of early childhood education, and it is essential that we provide our students with diverse and engaging books that will spark their imagination and foster a love of learning.

My classroom library is in need of new books that cover a range of subjects, including science, social studies, math, language arts, and SEL (Social Emotional Learning).

With your support, we can ensure that our students have access to high-quality books that will not only help them develop their reading skills but also expand their knowledge and understanding of the world.

Your contribution would make a significant difference in the lives of my students, helping them to develop a lifelong love of learning and preparing them for academic success in the years ahead.
