Make Your Mark in the Library

My Project

I love how creative, curious, and expressive my students are. They come from many different backgrounds, and when given the chance, they shine in ways that surprise even themselves.

I want our school library to be a space where every student feels inspired, empowered, and connected--and that starts with inviting them to create something of their own.

These art supplies and rotating caddies will let students participate in our bookmark design contest, a fun and meaningful way to launch a yearlong reading culture.

In our STEAM-focused, future-ready library, projects like this help students grow as readers, creators, and collaborators.
