Congratulations to our Kindergarten Team on being selected as an Amazon Innovative Teaching Grant recipients for the 2026–2027 school year! This grant will provide funding to support Storybook Treasures, an initiative designed to give our Kindergarten students a meaningful school-to-home literacy experience.
Through this project, our Kindergarten students will have opportunities to build their own home libraries and continue developing their love of reading beyond the classroom. We know that literacy development does not stop when the school day ends, and providing students with books they can enjoy at home helps create opportunities for families to read, talk, and learn together.
This is such a wonderful way to strengthen the connection between our classrooms and our Park Ridge families while helping our youngest learners see themselves as readers. We are excited about the experiences this grant will make possible for our Kindergarten students! ✨
