My Project

My students are curious, creative, and full of potential. They come to school eager to learn, explore, and connect with the world around them. Many of them face challenges outside the classroom, but they show resilience and a love for learning every day. A Free Little Library will give them access to books they can enjoy anytime—at school, at home, or with friends. It encourages independent reading, builds literacy skills, and fosters a sense of community. With this resource, every student can discover the joy of reading and feel empowered to grow.
