My Project

My 3rd graders, who are both special education and general education students, are eagerly anticipating the start of an exciting new school year, and I’m reaching out for your support to ensure they have everything they need to thrive. Your generous contribution will help me provide essential classroom supplies that will set the stage for a successful year ahead.

With your help, we can supply vibrant markers, pencils, markers, and colorful paper for creative projects that will inspire artistic expression and make learning more engaging.

Staplers and staples will help keep their work neatly organized, while personalized name plates will add a touch of individuality to each student’s desk, fostering a sense of ownership and belonging.

Additionally, growth mindset posters will serve as a daily reminder of the power of perseverance and positive thinking, encouraging students to embrace challenges and strive for their best. Reward cards will be used to recognize and celebrate their efforts and achievements, keeping motivation high and reinforcing a love of learning.

Your donation will play a crucial role in creating a dynamic and supportive classroom environment where my students can explore, create, and grow. Thank you for helping to make this school year a memorable and successful experience for all of them!
