My new classroom this year is the library! Our library is new and I am quite new to the job so I need all the help I can get. We are lucky that the Boston Public Schools have made a new commitment to put a library in every school and a librarian in every library.
Our school is unusual. It is a Boston Public High School for English Language Learners. This means our library must be unusual too. Our students come from over 30 countries and speak over 20 languages. We need to see those countries and languages represented in the library but it's not easy. I come to Donors Choose to fund the extra items I need to make the library work for everyone: shelves, signs, posters etc. The kids are loving the library already and I know with some help we can make it a showplace for international learning.
