My Project

My students are incredibly creative and have unique stories and unique voices. My classes are diverse and have many EL students, some of whom are brand new to this country.

This essential pack will help them express themselves while being in a clean classroom.

The books I specified, I wish to start a rich classroom library with a diverse selection of books.

Pencils are always in demand - while students have Chromebooks, many students prefer to write with paper and pencils. My students deserve a well-stocked, safe, and clean learning environment where they can read, write, and fuel their school success.
