My Project

Students struggled both emotionally and academically during the pandemic and peaking their curiosity and emphasizing grit will support them in making up for lost time. "Books in the nook" will be an opportunity for students to extend what we're learning in our Modern History of Hawai'i and Civics classes to peak their interests with high interest materials. There will also be books to support them in striving to be an emotionally strong and health teen and be motivated to push through daily adversity as well as prep for their college standardized exams. Please help fund the nook!
