Help me give my students a collection of books for our family reading center.
FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Hurt's classroom raised $543
This project is fully funded
My Project
Reading is fundamental. Our students who are also parents need more opportunities to read for pleasure and expand their comprehension. Reading Time is our take on family reading within the school where we engage our students with a variety of books (on all levels) and help them with reading and show them how to support the reading for their children. Students will use the books I am asking for to have a chance to read to each other, read to guests, and read to their children on family days at the school. Additionally, students who are active participants will get a chance to add books from the project to their personal library.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
