My Project

Our students love reading books, especially when they get to check out a brand-new one from the library!

The resources I use to buy books come from a few small grants I can find and apply for in our small rural Kansas town.

Most of these resources are used to replace our "well-loved" books that are damaged or beyond repair. That being said, there is a minimal amount of money left to buy new books for our library. Many students enjoy reading books that are a part of a series. Finding resources to purchase all of the "new title books'' is difficult to do with limited resources.

I am grateful for resources like Donors Choose, which allow teachers to fund projects like this for their classrooms. Please consider donating today!
