Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

This project is to help students start off the school year right with basic supplies. These supplies will help us get started on the right track with organization boxes for classroom folders, pens, pencils, tissues, bandaids, sanitizing wipes, ice packs, chart paper and snacks.

Help us to start the school year strong by donating to our classroom supplies!

We are so appreciative for the DonorsChoose community and their support for our classroom.

Thank you to all who donate - every donation is truly appreciated and all of these supplies go directly to support students' work on daily practice, projects and special activities.

Ms. A.
Grades 9-12
