  • Next meeting: April 10th at 6:30 - 7:30pm

the Bach Diverse Book Initiative

The Bach Diverse Book Initiative will provide Bach’s Y5s - 5th grade students and teachers with a collection of diverse, engaging, and culturally responsive texts at multiple reading levels to support all students. Our goal is to strategically update the Bach library collection over the next few years with recent, culturally authentic, and award winning books. With the help from our wonderful Bach families, we will be able to develop a culturally responsive print book collection that provides windows, mirrors, and sliding doors for our students!

 

View the wishlist and buy books

 

The wishlist will be open until March 31, 2024.

We've chosen Bookshop as the home of the book wishlist because purchases support our own local bookstores. Please share with family and friends!
