Our students come from diverse backgrounds and face unique challenges. Providing these items ensures that all students, regardless of their circumstances, have equal opportunities to excel.
Our goal is to provide every student with the fundamental tools needed for academic success.
By offering nutritious snacks and maintaining alertness with mints, we aim to support students' physical and mental well-being.
Our school fosters a supportive community where collaboration and mutual respect are key values, creating an environment conducive to learning and growth.
Specific items we are requesting:
Pencils and Erasers: Essential tools for writing and correcting mistakes, fostering effective note-taking and completing assignments with confidence.
Granola Bars: Provide nutritious energy promoting focus and sustained attention.
Mints: Help maintain alertness and freshness during classes, exams, and presentations, enhancing cognitive function and concentration.
Clorox wipes: Promote a clean and hygienic learning environment, reducing the spread of germs and illnesses among students.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
