Library Refresh!

Help me give my students the materials they need to be successful readers!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hironaka's classroom raised $999

This project is fully funded

My Project

We are working really hard to improve students' reading skills. Students need the resources to practice their reading skills and the library refresh will provide the materials to do that! Many of our classroom books have been used for students to take home and read during the pandemic. Now, many are falling apart and we are in desperate need of new books. We are so excited to refresh our library. My students helped to pick books they would like to have in our library. Thank you for helping to fuel my students love of reading!
