My Project

As a new high school, we have a beautiful campus available for our wonderful students, but not yet all of the resources. Our library space has been constructed, however, there are currently no books or materials within the library. Although students have access to digital books, it is very important that we provide our students the opportunity to select physical copies of books. While we are able to get some books for our students, the organizational features such as book ends, displays, and bar coding tape are necessary in getting our loaning system up and running.

Choosing a book based on interest allows students to explore and grow their love of reading.

As a Title I School, we have a number of students who do not have access to many resources. A stocked and well-functioning library can provide many tools for our students.

Mahalo for your donation!
