As our students struggle with the impact of Hurricane Harvey, they are grasping for ways to expel anxious and nervous feelings. Many of my students lost everything during the hurricane and will continue to deal with rebuilding their homes and lives for months to come.
Our campus is an phenomenal Fine Arts-driven community.
All students are engaged in creating art cars, learning to play in the award-winning band and orchestra, and performing in choir concerts. The teachers in our learning community are extremely passionate about preparing our students to become productive citizens by encouraging them to become life-long learners. The LO community supports our students and campus unconditionally and we want to continue encouraging our students to grow.
My Project
After the devastation of Hurricane Harvey, our students are looking for ways to escape the stress of the destruction of their homes and the stressful rebuilding process. The addition of these diverse books will allow students to escape into the world of fiction and nonfiction and hopefully become inspired by stories of hope and characters who overcome the obstacles of life.
I would love to add books to our classroom library that provide students with characters from across the globe that inspire them to keep preserving when times are tough.
By being able to gift my students with award-winning books that are uplifting and energizing, I hope that my young readers are encouraged to keep going when times are tough!
