My Project

As we begin the 2024-2025 school year we anticipate a successful year. As a 17th year veteran teacher. Each year is always new, different, and special. This is especially a new year for me because this is my first year at my current school. It has been such a supportive community and I am blessed to be here.

The kids feel a part of the community and are truly a joy to have.

I would like to create a 4th grade care closet. I have done this in the past and it helped all students stay on task. They don't have to go to the office for basic needs such as lotion, chap stick, Kleenex, band aids, or soap. What I have found in recent years is the kids come to school in a rush and may not have gotten an opportunity to spend as much time as they would like to get ready for the day.

My students would benefit greatly from our care closet that would include soap, washcloths, floss, toothpaste, hair supplies, feminine care, under garments, and if they would like to take a snack or dinner home they can do that as well. I recently had a student get extra pizza from lunch and took it home for dinner. Food insecurities should never be a topic a child has to worry about. I want to ensure that my classroom continues to be a safe space and I provide a place in our classroom where students can go and get items they are in need of without feeling embarrassed.

Thank you in advance for your generous donations and support.
