My Project

These books will help the students at our school have a diverse selection to choose from. They will also give variety to the topics and genres to read. Our current funding isn't enough to replenish shelves with current books every year. These funds will give them more exciting new books to read, especially early readers.

Early readers need to be exciting!

Our early readers get worn out and torn quickly because they are used by younger children. These new books will give K-2 students some exciting new titles to pick from.
