Ms. Lelliott from Irvine CA is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

The Library is Magic!

Help me give my students a little magic by creating Hogwarts in the library with gems to track House points, bands to build House camaraderie, and a couple sets of Harry Potter books for all my wizards-to-be!

My Students

As a librarian, I have the unique opportunity to get to know all of our students, and I feel so fortunate for that opportunity. They are hardworking, kind, and oh-so-silly in the way that only middle schoolers can be.

The library is a place for all students.

Besides research and literacy, our library provides a place for students to gather together and build a community. We love a crowded, noisy library and watching our students make friends and have fun!

My Project

This year, we're bringing a little magic to the library with a Hogwarts theme. My students are very excited to be sorted into Houses and participate in activities to win House points! From Quidditch to Muggle magic, we'll be inviting students in to engage in some spell-binding activities.

Harry Potter is all about standing up for what is good and right, and our students can always use more of that.

We already have over 150 students signed up to get their "acceptance" letters, and they can't wait to start earning points for their House by participating in these activities. These supplies will go a long way towards bringing these books to life.
