My Project

Our library is a learning hub in our small, rural school of about 300 students. Here they are exposed to a variety of reading materials like books, graphic novels, magazines, technology, activities, and storytimes to encourage their diverse interests & their love of reading. They are continuously requesting more and newer books in our library! When I can fill their specific requests, their excitement for reading grows and they are always more motivated to read!

My students need these books about holidays and celebrations that happen in February, March, and April to learn about all different cultures and keep them reading throughout EVERY season!

There are a number of holidays and celebrations that happen during February, March, and April, but our collection of books on these topics is sparse! Many of the books we have are older and need to be replaced. My students deserve the newest and most interesting books and stories with photos and illustrations to help engage and ignite their excitement for learning and reading! These books will help to build their vocabulary, background knowledge, and imagination which improves their ability to read and write.

Over 90% of our students are from lower-income families, and single-parent families, and receive free lunch in our Title I school. A large number of our student population lives between houses of different family members. Many will have a change of address at least once during the school year. Books are often lost or damaged by circumstances beyond their control. Our school is located in one of the most rural parts of our county and most are at least twenty minutes away from the nearest public library.
