My Students
Open a great book and you can open a whole new world to our students. Please help our students to keep on reading because reading is fundamental to their success.
Our students attend a middle school in a high poverty area in the Midwest.
They don't have all of the resources that most students have but they are bright, creative kids who just need a chance to achieve their potential. Providing them with a media center full of good books is a key to their success.
My Project
Middle school students have so many challenges facing them today. If we can catch their attention with good books they can be encouraged to read and improve their literacy skills. The key is providing them with good books that they actually want to read. I am requesting multiple copies of books from authors such as Cornelia Funke, Kenneth Oppel and Gary Paulsen and the most recent books in the Dear America Series.
You can make a difference in the lives of our middle school students by donating to this project. Help our students to keep on reading by providing great books for our media center. The students will benefit by having the books available to read so they meet their reading goals.
Our school truly believes that reading is fundamental to the successful 21st century student.
Literacy is a high priority and these resources will help our students meet their reading goals in their classrooms.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
