    Cameron's Collection

    Check out our brand new resource, Cameron's Collection.  

    As a part of the Save the Children grant, we have been able to purchase a collection of ebooks called Cameron’s Collection.  This curated collection of ebooks/econtent is aimed at teens and young adults and supports students’ mental health and wellness by raising awareness about topics ranging from teenage depression, anxiety, eating disorders, bullying to many others.  The message the collection seeks to send through these targeted resources is that students are aware that they are never alone.

    Cameron's Collection is available for middle school and high school students as well as FBISD staff.  Access the collection here:
