My Project

Budget cuts have hit our school hard. We lost 6 licensed staff members and our supply budget is close to zero. Meaning most supplies have to come out of teachers' own pockets.

Nicky folders help facilitate communication between school and home!

These folders also help students stay organized. When work is complete, they place it in their folder on the keep home side instead of just shoving it in their back packs where parents are left to find crumbled messes. The other side keeps important papers that need to be returned to the classroom. These important papers are usually printed on colored copy paper so parents know what to look for!

These supplies are non-negotiables. We must have them for the coming school year. If not for your donation, we will be buying out of our own pockets.
