Programs like AVID and Upward Bound bring more students into the GT program but not all of these students can afford the books, such as the Norton Reader. One project coud be to ask the students to donate any books they had to purchase when they are finished with them at the end of the year. Find a place to store these books permanently (library, kahuku.org, teacher's classroom, I'm sure Mrs. Vendiola would help promote this program from year to year). Kahuku.org is another resource, so they can be used the following year. Maybe sold at a very nominal price as a fundraiser for whoever is storing the books.
