Help me give my students some of their favorite books to encourage them to read.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Walkama's classroom raised $157
This project is fully funded
My Project
We are an inner city Title 1 school in a school district with a severe budget crisis. We have students representing all corners of the globe. Many of our student’s primary language is not English. Finding books that are of high interest will encourage them to want to read.
These books are some of the most requested and popular books in our school library.
Adding these books to our collection would be a wonderful addition to our very dated library.
Creating a young reader leads to a life long reader. A good offering of popular books are so important to a school library.
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
