My Project

Our school library is the heart of student learning, and we aim to fill its shelves with books from the American Library Association's 2025 Youth Media Awards.

These recently published, nationally recognized titles celebrate diversity, creativity, and excellence in literature, offering students windows into other worlds and mirrors to see themselves.

By providing access to these award-winning books, we can spark a love for reading, improve literacy skills, and foster critical thinking. Help us bring these powerful stories to our students, empowering them with the joy of discovery and the inspiration to dream big. Your support makes a difference!

Ms. Harris Washington Middle School Grades 6-8
