My Project

I am reaching out to you to help replenish our most basic art room supplies; paper, markers, pencils, crayons, and glue sticks. Additionally, maintaining a clean and healthy classroom is essential for student comfort and health.

My students enjoy learning about Native American culture through art and having these most basic art supplies will spark their creativity.

By contributing to this project, you will strengthen the learning experience of my students. Your donation will help us:

- Promote creativity and self-expression

- Provide a healthy classroom environment

The study of art and culture can build confidence as well as a sense of identity.

Chi Miigwech (thank you)!

Ms. Siena Anishinabe Academy Grades PreK-2
