Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

These popular titles will give the joy of reading to the students at school, making them come back for more.

My goals are to get more students reading and interested in books, and to improve the Library book circulation numbers.

I love that the kids enjoy coming to the Library and seeing what books are out on display. The Library is a special place for everyone! It is a gathering spot at recess and lunch for the students who want to come in and read a book or exchange one they have finished.
