My Project

Dear Donors,

We're reaching out to you with a heartfelt request to support our STEM art project for elementary school students by funding the purchase of essential art supplies.

With limited resources, we are unable to provide our students with the necessary tools to fully explore the convergence of STEM and art. Specifically, we aim to acquire canvases to embark on a Dash Art project inspired by the renowned artist, Alma Thomas. These canvases will serve as the foundation for our students to express their creativity while learning about Thomas's innovative techniques. By incorporating elements of STEM into their artistic endeavors, our goal is to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation for these disciplines among our young learners. What makes our students truly special is their boundless curiosity and eagerness to explore new concepts. Your support will not only enable them to engage in meaningful hands-on experiences but also empower them to unlock their potential as future innovators and thinkers

Thanks in advance,

Mrs. Gordon

Mrs. Gordon Shaler Area Elementary School Grades 3-5
