My Students Deserve an Organized Library That Brings Joy!

Help me give my students a library that is bright, organized, and inspiring!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. D.'s classroom raised $514

My Project

Our school's library hasn't been well maintained for over 20 years! As a first year librarian, I want to give our students a fresh and updated space. Having bookshelf dividers will make looking for books so much easier. I will be able to display information and book recommendations in a clean, crisp way.

Being able to label the different topics and sections will allow my students to discover new materials and fall in love with reading again.

Using wall decals to bring positive messages and beautiful images, will bring joy to the bare walls and bookshelves. It's been a rough few years in our education system. These items will support them emotionally and academically. My students deserve a library that looks new and organized!
