My Project

Thank you for investing in our learners, classroom community, and school. Our students deserve every opportunity to reach success and have equitable access to engaging materials and amazing in-class libraries that offer variety and new offerings. We are so excited about the project Reading Rocks! And So Do Awesome Libraries!, and we hope you are too!

Building student interest in reading to encourage life-long joy in literature and exploration is essential in a learning space.

The more students engage in various types of text, the more they build different skills in comprehension, and hopefully, find joy in the journey. These new texts will come just in time to update our classroom library shelves with diverse stories and perspectives, graphic novels that excite, and both classic and new literature that will engage students to try new things as readers.

Thank you for your generosity and support in creating the best learning space possible for our deserving students so that they feel seen and valued. Having new and engaging books on our shelves will go a long way to support our learners and our learning space. We are so grateful!
