Reading at Home

Help me give my students books to read at home with their families.

Mrs. S.
Grades PreK-2

My Students

Our Title I school serves a 100% military population. We are a very transient school, with families frequently moving in and out of the state and country. Our students often have one parent deployed or away working with the military.

Our students are excited about ​school and have an innate need to learn all that they can absorb.

They come to school each day excited about what amazing things they will learn that day, and wondering what interesting activities they will participate in. We endeavor to make school feel like a second home.

My Project

Literacy skills are incredibly important in our everyday lives. We are constantly reading road signs, closed captions, the news, emails, and so much more. Because of this, it is important for students to have a strong foundation in reading. The best way to promote reading, is to give students books to read at home with their families.

Our goal is to promote an excitement for reading in each of the 700 students in our school.

With your help, our school will be able to gift our students a variety of books, promoting reading at home. This will also create new excitement for books for all of our pre-k to 5th grade students. These high-interest books will allow every student to find a book that they enjoy.

Our students would love to have books at home to read with their parents. Help us support the education of our 700 military students.
