Practical Tools & Inspiring Decor

Help me give my students tools and inspiration to make our media center run smoothly.

My Project

We want our students to feel excited and at home in our media center. This project will help us achieve that by blending practical upgrades with motivational decor. The new barcode scanner will make checking out books quick and easy, which means more time for students to explore our collection.

The "Read Books and Be Kind" and "Read Read Repeat" neon signs will brighten our space and serve as daily reminders of the positive power of books and kindness.

The colored electrical tape will help us keep our chromebook cart organized with color coded spots. By supporting this project, you're helping us create an environment where every student can thrive.
