Help us Build a Community of Readers in our School!

My Project

We are hoping to do a "One School, One Book" reading initiative with the book The Wild Robot Escapes. Every family in our high-needs school would get a copy of the book, either in Spanish or in English. Families would read the book together at home and we will have assemblies, activities, and prizes related to the book to build excitement. We are hoping to get kids excited to read and to get our parents/community members more involved in our school as well. We want to build a community of readers. Thank you for your consideration!
