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
Last year we read The Shallows. This year the class size has increased and we need additional copies.
My goal is to give students access to engaging nonfiction texts such as The Shallows by Pulitzer prize finalist Nicholas Carr.
The Shallows explores the effects of the Internet on the human brain, as our constant exposure to the online environment through digital devices strips our ability to target our focus and stay concentrated, all while modifying our brain neurologically and anatomically.
Thank you for your consideration in supporting our students' success as critical thinkers, readers, and writers.
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
