Help me give my students a free book to keep and kick off their summer reading.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Dawson's classroom raised $757
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
The preschoolers and kindergarteners at my school love listening to stories and picking out books in the library.
At Rebecca Johnson School, we do everything we can to keep our students reading all summer.
I'll be working with the public library to make sure every family has the chance to sign up for a library card.
I would love to offer each student the opportunity to pick a book to take home at their last library class. I've picked out some quality literature for them with enough variety to make sure everyone finds something they like.
Nearly all 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
