My Project

As a teacher, I am dedicated to providing students with the best learning environment. However, many of our students come to school without the basic supplies they need to succeed in their everyday classroom activities. We are requesting funding for some essential classroom supplies to ensure all students are prepared and ready to learn.

These supplies are critical to our classroom's day-to-day functioning and help students stay engaged and organized.

When students access these basic materials, they can better participate in activities, complete assignments, and stay focused on their learning.

Basic school supplies may seem small, but they make a difference in a student's success. I am requesting folders to hold their daily papers. This project will create a more organized, efficient, and successful classroom where all students can thrive.
