My Project

Throughout the school year, high-use classroom supplies such as floor cushions, lighting, writing utensils, and art materials endure wear and tear, necessitating replenishment to maintain an engaging and comfortable learning environment. This project will provide funding to replace these essential items, ensuring students continue to have access to a well-equipped, welcoming classroom that fosters learning, creativity, and collaboration.

A well-supplied classroom is vital for student success.

Over time, critical classroom materials such as floor cushions for flexible seating, lighting to create a comfortable ambiance, and writing and art supplies become worn down, impacting their usability.

Many of these items are integral to student engagement, participation, and overall learning experience. Unfortunately, limited school budgets often do not allow for frequent replacements. This grant will help restore these essential resources, benefiting all students and enhancing their daily learning environment.
