My Project

We are in need of books in our library that have characters that my students can identify with and subjects that will grab their attention and make them want to read more!

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

My students are wonderful and with your help, we can give them every opportunity to be successful not only in their school careers but in their futures as well. These students are an important part of all our futures!
