A note from Karen
My biggest wish is to get more books into the hands of my students. I've been teaching at my school for 25 years, and I know my students & their families well. My students are SO smart & are as capable as any other student in any school anywhere. Yet, many of our students are reading below grade level. I would love to increase their resources & opportunities. Many of our families are living below the poverty line & my school doesn't have a large tax base to pull from. It's a small community with very little businesses. We're almost entirely government-funded. Donors like you truly make a difference for students like mine. Thank you SO much!
A book Karen recommends
The Bad Seed by Jory John
Adopt Karen’s classroom
A wishlist is one moment in a long year. Supplies run out, holiday projects need their own things, and the snack drawer is empty again by February. Adopting means Karen can tell you what comes up next, and how the year is going in the room itself.
Once a month at the most, written by Karen. One click to stop, whenever you like. Karen never sees your address, and it is used for nothing else.
