Ms. Cecil’s Library

My Project

This year I am moving to a new school with nothing to take to my new classroom. I would love your help putting books on my shelves for my students to read. Fostering a love of reading and storytelling begins with access to stories that students can fall into and find themselves in! Most of my students are low income and may not even have a book on a shelf at home. I want my classroom library to be somewhere they can always find a book they’ll fall into love with!

Ms. Cecil Fairdale High School Grades 9-12
