Cleaning supplies will be used to help keep students healthy throughout the year. We are not provided any in class and many families don't have the means to provide them at the beginning of the year. Snacks will be used to help students who aren't able to get something to eat at home a healthy snack which will allow them to be focused and happy in class rather than hungry. Art supplies will be used to teach students art, science, and social studies through fun activities that force students to be creative, thoughtful, and collaborative. They will not only help them to learn the topics at hand but will help to make school fun and engaging.
