My Project

The supplies I am requesting are the basic supplies that students will be able to use all year and beyond.

There is nothing like starting a new year with new supplies readily available.

Having the basics is the last thing we want our students to worry about.

I am requesting simple items such as pencils, glue sticks, paint palettes, and dry-erase markers which will come in handy during lessons and during independent work time. The pencil pouches will allow students to keep all of their items in one tidy place.

Your support in getting basic items into my students' hands would be greatly appreciated. Any donation helps. Thank you for your consideration.
