students overall. We will address the high and low level readers needing age appropriate interest books by
bringing in books to fit the appropriate interest levels at our school, adding more choices and variety and
books with updated information making reading a bit more fun and exciting for them. To address our
Spanish speaking students, we will bring in more books in Spanish with age appropriate interest levels,
adding more selections to the section."

In 2019, the Idaho Lottery learned 28 percent of Idaho elementary schools had a library budget of less than $100 per year for book procurement. In reality, it would take nearly $8,000 every year per school to maintain the library collection students need to succeed. With that in mind, the Idaho Lottery worked with the Idaho Commission for Libraries to start Bucks For Books. Literacy has been a focus of Idaho Governor Brad Little since he took office in 2019. Getting all Idaho students reading at grade level by the third grade is imperative as that is the point where students transition from learning-to-read to reading-to-learn. Having a well-stocked library and the ability for all students to take books home is crucial in getting all Idaho students where they need to be.
