TARGET setting up a small library from scratch

My teacher daughter was told to set up a small library (they have never had
a library) for her small special needs school. They were awarded a $10,000
grant. Thank you for all your help on what to purchase to get started. Now
she has another question that I hope you can help her with:

She realistically can only order about 300 books. Most of the students read
on a second and third grade reading level, even though the school is K-8.
What are your ideas on the percentage of books in each genre that she needs
to buy? The Follett representative said to come up with a percentage in each
genre and she has no idea. The students have environmental, oppositional and
defiant disorders and have been removed from their own schools.

Newberry %

Caldecott %

Mass Framework %

Easy Reader %

Juv Fiction %

Non Fiction % = Animals, Transportation, Disasters, Sports, Cars, Poetry

Any others %

Thank you so much
