My Project

I'm excited that funding is once again available for us to purchase tools for our classroom. I am asking for a standing desk, which I will use probably daily in my classroom, but my seniors will also be able to use for their portfolio presentations (they were nervous last year and it will give them an actual anchor!). I am requesting some refreshes (white board cleaning rag, glue sticks, highlighters) as well as some new books for our classroom library and a couple teacher books! The standing screen is for us to use in a new office space with the projector I was able to obtain last year--we will be able to project IEPs now to discuss with families in real time.
