Our school currently has no library, leaving students without a dedicated space to explore books, grow as readers, or develop a love for literature. We’re hoping to change that by creating a makeshift library right in our classrooms.
Our students have been begging for book recommendations, and with the limited amount we have, we are stuck.
Our staff wants to encourage independent reading by providing engaging books that meet the needs and interests of all our students. Your support will help us to provide a wide range of titles that reflect our students’ experiences and spark their curiosity.
Every book added brings us closer to giving students access to stories, knowledge, and imagination that every learner deserves.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
