My Project

Our library and makerspace are always buzzing with activities. In here, our students go beyond reading and book checkout! They learn to imagine, build, explore and work together! Help us expand our makerspace activity choices with new elements geared at our youngest students while also engaging our older kids as well!

The library at our school is a safe, welcoming place for all and we are always striving to make it even better.

From adding a Yoto (screen free!) listening station and sensory area to adding to our building activity options, this project will engage all ages of students at Sunnyside!
