My Students

My students come from many diverse backgrounds and often have difficulty purchasing the basic supplies for school because their families must focus on food and paying the bills. Many have learning challenges but each of them have a love for learning and have big dreams for their futures which I want them to achieve. These school supplies will brighten their dreams for their futures. My students have a love for learning and they want to share their creativity with the world.

My Project

Many of my students come from impoverished homes and paying the bills and putting food on the table must come first before buying new school supplies. By providing pencils, folders, colored pencils, dry erase markers and erasers you would be providing my eager learners with a great start to a new school year.

These supplies would allow them to show their creativity to run wild with their creativity as they develop wonderful writing pieces while staying organized.

It would enable them to be creative thinkers and writers and take pride in their work instead of worrying that they couldn't complete their assignment because they were lacking the basic materials to create their masterpieces.
