Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education.
Students will be able to take a copy of their book home so that they can read, think about it, and come up with discussion points to talk about with their peers. We will also be using them in class to read together, and students will get time to read silently as well. We will work towards connecting these powerful and relevant novels to real-world issues. Students will then choose a social justice topic that they are passionate about and work on writing a petition, using what they have learned.
