The students in AP Literature and Composition are reading the first novel, All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. Anthony Doerr has written a novel with a setting in World War II, Paris, France. The author's deft hand allows the interweaving of two stories, one of Marie-Laure and Werner. The students are enjoying the novel and appreciate you thinking of our class.\r\n\r\nThe novel, A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaleo Hosseini allows students to experience the setting of Afghanistan for the past 30 years. It is a story of two generations of characters brought jarringly together by the tragic sweep of war. The students will get a chance to read a novel set in a time that is relevant to today's politics. Your donation has allowed me to extend the novel list of reading for both classes. I am appreciative, and I know the students certainly are.","fullyFundedDate":1740090739364,"projectUrl":"project/we-need-exciting-novels-for-our-exciting/9074603/","projectTitle":"We Need Exciting Novels for Our Exciting Classes","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bennett","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9514127_orig.png?crop=148,148,x39,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1773860617838","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9514127"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_17401","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":199,"numTeachers":24,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":69,"percentWhite":3,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":25,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"8.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":33.1,"schoolId":17401,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Leland High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Leland High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/mississippi/leland-school-district/leland-high-school/17401"}
