Bring on the Focus in Math Class

Help me give my students something to look forward to when coming to math class. We are short bouncy bands on 10 desks, if we could get them for each desk the students would feel singled out.

My Students

My school consists of 76 amazing and bright students. Our school strives to find the leader in all students.

Every child has capabilities, talents, and strengths; sometimes, all it takes is exposure or motivation.

Our students are not just peers, but they are family, they strive to help each other succeed. These students have had to work through a lot, we are a very small school and we don't have all the resources these students deserve. My students are incredible people and I hope to help them become even better.

My Project

Most of the items we are requesting are to restock items that our school is very low on. Many classes in our school do not have markers, colored pencils, crayons, etc. for crafting activities.

By donating to our class you will not only help us start off 2022 with a fully stocked classroom, but you will help contribute to our students focus and academic success.

When students are completely caught up in all classes they will have the opportunity to play games that are both strategic and challenging like mancala and Chinese chess.

Thank you!
