This teacher needs your help!

Mrs. Library from Tacoma, WA is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

We Want to Read Manga Please!

Help me give my students some Manga to read! They are voracious readers, manga and other graphic novels are their favorite but, they are just not as fun to read online.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Library's classroom raised $7,742

My Students

Our Middle school library serves more than 700 students. Our student population is highly inquisitive, energetic, and motivated to direct their own inquiry-based learning through exploration of library resources. Our school has an incredible group of students from a richly diverse range of backgrounds. Unfortunately, high poverty is part of the daily experience for most of these learners.

Our wonderful students deserve to have every advantage of access to new books in which they can see them selves and look into other perspectives through books that feature characters different from them.

This year we are focusing on closing the achievement gap and creating a school full of confident, successful students.

My Project

The students that attend First Creek have spoken! They have filled out questionnaires and have overwhelmingly asked for Manga books! They love Manga so much we can't keep any on the shelf. I would like to re-stock our manga shelves with a wide variety of titles that will appeal to all of our diverse student population.

Manga is what the students come to the library asking for and they run to the shelves to see if there are any left!

Right now our shelves are empty because all the books are checked out! Please help replenish our supply of manga books!
