We have been working with creating confident readers at our school and sharing the love of reading with others. Our quick picks have been a huge hit since hitting our shelves. Many students love the nostalgic journey of rereading their favorite books from elementary and middle school and have been sharing their love of reading with their siblings at home. \r\n\r\nThis has also opened our library to others who may struggle with reading at a higher level because they feel more welcome to read stuff at their reading level that is available to everyone. More of our special education students feel more welcome in the library and they are over the moon that we have plenty of options for them to read. They will swing by and choose a book to read. I also have been doing more read-aloud times with our intensive resources students, and they love that they can choose a book for me to read aloud during storytimes. This helps them foster a love for reading and storytelling and also helps them understand that a library is a welcoming space for them while they are in school or even out of school. \r\n\r\nThanks for donating to our project. Seeing our students who did not have a represented reading level at our library now have options, and seeing them fall back in love with reading has dramatically changed our library environment to make it more welcoming for everyone.","fullyFundedDate":1736966179399,"projectUrl":"project/quick-picks-empowering-struggling-reade/8866729/","projectTitle":"Quick Picks: Empowering Struggling Readers with Engaging Literary Selections","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jamie","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9134136_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x510,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1690932622401","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/jamie-whiting"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_44035","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":855,"numTeachers":53,"percentFrplEligible":41,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":7,"percentWhite":45,"percentIndigenous":8,"percentLatinx":12,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"16.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":43.3,"schoolId":44035,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Lathrop High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Lathrop High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/alaska/fairbanks-north-star-borough-sd/lathrop-high-school/44035"}
