My Project

Your generosity will go a long way next year for my middle school students. My middle school classroom typically lacks essential items that are funded by me. My building is a CEP school, which means all students receive free lunch. Many students also lack the funds to purchase supplies. Helping me stock my closet will help my students who constantly ask for supplies.

My math classroom is non-tradition by using more than just your typical paper & pencil and your support will allow me to do this.

Having addition chargers will allow me to provide one to students so they are able to continue with their daily lessons.

Having tissues, paper towels and cleaning supplies will allow me to keep germs away, so students are not sick.

Folders, white board erasers, pencils and markers allow me to provide supplies to students who don’t have them.

Large paper allows me to create more resources for students to use as a reference tool to feel successful.
