My Students

I have 92 sixth-graders who work very hard, despite the circumstances. They come from many different backgrounds. Some do not have a computer or internet at their house. Several of my students receive backpack food on the weekend. Despite so many hardships, my students are eager to learn and do their best. They want to be in school because they want to learn all they can so they can be successful one day.

Our school is a middle school in rural Virginia.

Many students receive free or reduced price lunch.

My Project

Do you remember learning to read and finally finding that book or series that you just loved and couldn't put down? I want my students to find that love. This project will make a huge difference in my students' lives. Many of my students claim they don't like reading. While this breaks my heart, I also know it's probably because they just haven't found that "just right" book to love.

These books will allow my students to find something they enjoy reading, which in turn, will turn them into lifelong readers!

My students will receive books that they just can't put down!
