Reading Is Important to Us!

Help me give my students a new set of their favorite books.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kaupu's classroom raised $659

My Project

Aloha Everyone,

We are asking for these items to help replenish our library copies of these books.

Student's love these kid friendly series and our copies have been through a lot. Most of these books are tarnished, ripped, old, and even stained. The kids still insist on reading them as I try my best to "save" them.

These items will help our students have nice and clean books that students will love. I also included some headphones as a lot of kids try to go on our online library to listen to audio books or research some of their books to listen/read them online.
