My Project

My students deserve to have ready access to texts that pique their interests. We have a high interest in fantasy, sci-fi, graphic novels, manga, and stories in futuristic settings.

Help me enhance literacy skills in all students by giving them access to titles they've specifically requested.

My goal is to build a library at Center One. By curating a large collection of texts that students find engaging, I hope to shift students' relationship with reading. Receiving these texts will ensure that students have enough text options to keep them reading for years.
