My Project

Students in my class missed a lot of in-person school because of COVID-19. They were unable to do many things that made school fun. Please help me give my students the art supplies that they need to have fun and enjoy school. Using glue, color markers, crayons, pencils, and more will help them express themselves in creative ways and teach them that school is a fun and safe place to learn.

Creating art projects will not only help students build confidence in school, but it will affect their academic learning by encouraging them to do their best in all subject areas.
