My Project

Our students love read-aloud stories!

We are a title 1 school and have boosted our read aloud stories in the classroom with great success.

The picture books we've chosen for this donation will help our school gain new read aloud stories that help spark great conversations about students' interactions with others and their every day experiences.

Our school has both traditional classrooms and Montessori classrooms. The diversity of the stories we are requesting will help show our students they can do anything they put their minds to. Please consider supporting our students in their love of reading!
