My Project

Please help me bring fun and engaging books to our library! Our students are asking for new books. By the time our students have reached 5th and 6th grades, they have read almost everything in our school library! We need more books for our 6th Graders!

These books will help keep my students desire to read alive by providing new books that continue to spark their imagination and love of reading!

Thank you for supporting the love of reading in our students! Our 6th Graders will be so excited to get new books that perfect for them! Thank you!
