My Project

This request is being made on behalf of our future. These students who will benefit from the structure and routines that these resources will exemplify will be the people whom you and I will be depending on to create safe and healthy spaces for us in institutions later.

These bins will allow us to store, sort and organize materials such as pencils, pens , crayons and tools that are used daily.

Since they are clear, students will be able to independently access materials more efficiently saving time to spend on academic tasks. The colored bins will help to organize a leveled library in an inviting space to attract readers. The broom and other cleaning supplies will get us started for the year. Yes, we need to clean up after ourselves since we will be super productive this year.
