    Thank you so much for your generous donation to our classroom. With this intense health season that we've had, the hand sanitizer and tissues have been instrumental in keeping myself and my students healthy. Pens and pencils have helped set students up for success, and the flair pens and white board spray have helped me in my day-to-day tasks.

    My students are so grateful for the materials. They appreciate never having to want for supplies in our classroom--ESPECIALLY for the tissues and hand sanitizer.

    As our students wrap up the third quarter of school and inch toward being seniors, I am so grateful for not having had to worry about supplying them with the basics. We have had a fantastic 19-20 school year, in part thanks to you!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Eichensehr

  • Historian Supplies

    Funded Nov 7, 2018

    Thank you so much for your support to our classroom. The tissues have been much needed during cold season! We have the special antibacterial type of tissues, which should hopefully keep our kids healthy and in school. The post-its and bright paper have added some pop to our room. The organizers have greatly helped in keeping our class in shape and keeping our art supplies organized. My students love the new materials and have used them in various projects.

    Please keep your eyes and ears open for more opportunities to support our wonderful students!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Eichensehr

  • Historian Supplies!

    Funded May 23, 2018

    Thank you so much for your generous donation to Room 106 of Mastery Charter's Shoemaker Campus!

    The supplies your donation went toward were indispensable to setting up our classroom for success this year. From pencils to staplers to tissues and hand sanitizer, these supplies are used daily. Rather than falling into the pitfalls of under-funded classrooms, our room is well-equipped for learning every day, all thanks to you.

    Our classroom is warm and cheery. Students appreciate that there is "real" tissue for them in the back, and are glad to receive highlighters and pencils when it's time to dive into some annotations. I know they feel important and taken care of in a room with neat, organized, and plentiful supplies.

    Since this project was amazingly OVER funded, I look forward to using the extra funds (hopefully!) for a field trip this Fall. Otherwise, it will be reserved for replenishing supplies for the rest of the year, or even for future school years.

    Again, thank you so much for your contribution. What was a few clicks for you went so far for my students and me.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Eichensehr

When you were in high school, you probably began the year with a fully-equipped Social Studies classroom. As the year went on, when the pencil sharpener broke or the stapler jammed, your teacher likely was able to replace it within a few days. This is not always the case in under-funded city and charter schools. My students need a full classroom's worth of supplies, and unfortunately, neither my school nor I have the budget to fulfill this need. I have requested: tissues for runny noses; hand sanitizer to keep us healthy and germ-free; coloring supplies for projects; a globe and map to put history in geographical context; pencils and pens for writing; a high-quality sharpener to sharpen pencils; a stapler to put together packets and essays; a presidential poster to aid in keeping our leaders in the correct context of time; and scented plugins to keep our classroom pleasant-smelling, especially on gym days. Your help would be greatly appreciated in ensuring my students' pencils and minds stay sharp, their packets get stapled, and their classroom has color!
