Curated Books (based on individual student ability and interest)

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, students in BCPSS had various reading levels despite being in the same grade level. Being out of classrooms exasperated this discrepancy. For this reason, we delivered students books that matched their reading level AND personal interests.

FUN FACT: 75% of our students LOVE comics!
