Original Grant Overview
Goal
Our mission at the Lely Elementary Media Center is to get quality reading material into the hands of every student. Our kids are ravenous readers and we strive to get books to grow their minds.
What will be done with my students
Every year, we promote the Sunshine State Reading Program. Kids at all elementary grade levels read as many of the Sunshine State Books as they can. At the end of the school year, the Collier County Supervisor of Elections brings real voting booths to our media center for our students to vote for their favorite Sunshine State Books.
This grant is for funds to purchase all of the Sunshine State Books for both Kindergarten through second grade as well as third grade through fifth grade.
Benefits to my students
We know that kids learn so much from reading. They develop their minds, their creativity, their empathy, and their knowledge by reading quality reading material. The books chosen by the Florida Association of Media in Education are first-rate, quality books that speak to our student population. They will beautifully crafted stories and learn about the world around them. We know that reading fosters intelligence in students. Being a Title 1 school, we have greater needs than most. Helping our kids with quality books will pay off exponentially.
Budget Narrative
These books are for both Kindergarten through second grade Sunshine State Books as well as third through fifth grade Sunshine State Books. With all of these books and for less than a dollar per student, we will serve the needs of all 495 students at Lely Elementary School.
