My Project
Help our middle school students dive into the rich history of the Civil War with small group reading sets of historical fiction books. By reading these engaging narratives, students will not only better grasp the complexities of this pivotal era but also develop a deeper empathy for those who lived through it.
Historical fiction brings history to life, making the past more relatable and memorable.
These stories will spark thoughtful discussions and a more profound understanding of historical events and human experiences. Your support will enhance our curriculum and inspire a love of history through captivating literature.
More than half of students from low‑income households
