My Project

I want students to have a welcoming room where they truly thrive, can be themselves, and create beautiful works of art to share with the world. I am asking for storage and all different types of art supplies, paper, and organization products in order to make my classroom a safe, organized, and productive space for all my kiddos.

Materials such as tempera sticks, construction paper, and model magic will be used by students age 4-11 in order to explore different mediums and create a variety of different masterpieces throughout the school year.

Paint palettes will be a perfect way to store paint to use for multiple projects.

As a community charter school (non-profit), we don’t receive the same funds as a public school. We rely on community partners and families to fundraiser money for curriculum, supplies, and engaging lessons.
