After 17 years of teaching kindergarten and first grade, I’m stepping into a brand-new adventure—teaching third grade for the very first time! One of my biggest goals this year is to create a warm, welcoming classroom library filled with diverse, engaging books that spark a love of reading. I want my students to have access to stories that excite them, challenge them, and open up new worlds—right at their fingertips. Every dollar raised will go directly toward building this library so my students can discover the joy of reading and carry it with them for years to come.
