Students rotate through the space each day, and many have told me that it helps them concentrate, calm down, and actually look forward to reading. One student said, \"I feel like I can read for hours here.\"\r\n\r\nThe couch will be our hub for small-group discussions, partner reading conferences, and student-led \"book talks.\" I can already tell that this cozy space will continue to inspire better conversations, better focus, and a stronger love of reading.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my students a place that feels special, inviting, and truly theirs.
