My Students

My students are a bright bunch of 5th graders who are constantly pushing themselves to reach their goals. My 5th graders take initiative in their own learning and are always excited to demonstrate their understanding of a new topic or subject.

My Project

My students are expected to spend the remainder of the school year learning from home. My 5th graders have been learning virtually since September and many of the supplies they started the school year with are gone. Normally, these items would be shared among students in my classroom but that is not an option this year.

My students are falling behind because they don't have the basic supplies needed to be able to learn at home.

Help my students achieve greatness. Help me get basic school supplies to my students!
