My Project

Our Legend Springs students are returning to in-person learning after a long few years of online home schooling. Many students have never been in a classroom environment. They have not experienced many of the social and emotional values you learn in school.

Our school goal is to have our library full of many books on the topics that will guide kids to understand the importance of Kindness, Respect, Confidence and Acceptance.

To help students feel positive about their school experience we can have available these types of books. Books are a valuable tool for all to learn from. These library books can be checked out and read with parents and friends that will be discussed and enjoyed. Our goal is to spread Kindness and Acceptance in our school environment.
