FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Summer's classroom raised $544

My Project

I work with students who love reading. Through Rally to Read, students can listen to amazing books read aloud by their teachers and connect with many different themes.

This project would provide students with the amazing books needed for Rally to Read and Battle of the Books March Madness.

This year’s choices are books meant to spark hope, create change, and push questions and inspiration. Stories bring hope. Even as we turn another page filled with despair, our heroes emerge victorious, bruised and battered, but forged by fire. These stories will help my students see the world in a bigger context.
