Help Build Our Kindergarten Library

Help me give my students more opportunities to engage with books through our weekly book packs that are sent home with students! As our school does not have a school library, building our classroom library is essential!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Poe's classroom raised $1,062

This project is fully funded

My Project

As our school unfortunately does not have a school library, our classroom library is an essential way that students are able to access books. Indeed, we send home weekly book packs for students and their families to read at home in order to promote language and vocabulary development, as well as help foster a love of learning by giving students access to books they want to read!

Your donation will help us continue to build our classroom library and enable us to send home a wide range of high-quality books for students and their families to read at home.
