Help Us Give Our School Library a Glow Up!

Help me give my students a bright and welcoming library space next year!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Senna's classroom raised $200

My Project

Our school will be 100 years old in 2025. Along with the character of an old school, it also comes with a building that needs a lot of TLC with the room decor to make the space inviting and welcoming.

Adding new wall decor will help to make our school library space warm and inviting.

The library is the hub of our school community with meetings and events often occuring in this space. Having an athsethically pleasing space helps us represent our school in the best way.

I have chose a calming color palatte for this upgrade. Keeping room decor calm and neutral with pops of color prevents the space from being overstimulating for our young learners.
