Help me give my students the opportunity to have and closely read books for our unit of study: Books About People Like Me!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Strum's classroom raised $590
This project is fully funded
My Project
Our students like to be engaged in what they read and study. They enjoy reading material that resonates with them. We have found the more they are engaged they better they will do academically. The books chosen will be used in classroom book clubs with the goal of motivating even the most reticent reader.
Ours is also an early college high school, where students, after reaching certain benchmarks, can earn both a high school as well as an associate's degree.
The books selected will allow for rich and rigorous discussions.
More than three‑quarters 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
