There is a Super Hero in ME!

My Project

Our students are diverse, ethnically, in language and in personality and yet each one can improve on what they've been given. Each can be a hero in their own life.

Help me give them books to help them learn to take care of their materials and belongings, books to encourage them to be super heroes in their own way and tools to help them reach for that by aiming for improvements like a Peregrine Falcon!

I know if I can inspire each one to reach for the best in them they will achieve new heights in Reading and Math! I really want them to believe that there are not only super heroes in movies but that they can be their own Super Hero!
