I will be using the requested books to improve mentorships with middle school students and work toward positive school change. Educators around the United States are trying to motivate students to do their best after coming out of the pandemic. In order to do this we have to look at student behavior and discipline as well as learning spaces in the school. The books requested will be used to put ideas into effect with little to no additional money within weeks. This will lead to positive changes in our school.
More than half 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
