I wanted to create a space that was welcoming, warm, and filled with things that the students needed and wanted. Of course more books was a need, but I also wanted to create a Maker Space area where students could work together, collaborate, create, and problem solve.

I told the principal that I hoped we could have our staff meetings in here instead of in the cafeteria and that is now possible as well.
