My Project

The school I teach at is a Title I funded school and the majority of our families are considered low income. These supplies will take the burden of purchasing new supplies off of the families and make it so all students have exactly the same supplies to use each day. These materials will help my students be successful at completing tasks and learning at school.

I work with a diverse population of students who have varying needs and benefit from interactive lessons.

The supplies that are being requested include a pencil sharpener, stapler and pencils. All of these items will be used during interactive lessons or to benefit the students in the classroom and to help the students stay organized.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
