New Books for a New Year

Help me give my students newly published books to start off the new school year!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Harris's classroom raised $432

This project is fully funded

My Project

Please consider donating toward getting books published in 2024 to help our students start off the new year with recent, relevant titles to check out from our library. We are always striving to have new books for students to read that represent them and their real-world experiences. Finding newly published books such as "We Built the City," help students see themselves and their world in the books they read.

Students in middle school have the potential to build habits of becoming life-long readers, so having exciting books for students to access will support more students in developing these habits.

Students will benefit from your donation by becoming stronger readers, starting in middle school and stretching well beyond.
