My Students

My students are so excited to be back in person this 21-22 school year! However, unfortunately, due to a lack of funding and resources, teachers are required to provide cleaning, sanitary, and overall health supplies. Nearly all of the students are from low-income households and cannot pay for supplies either. My students love learning and want to be able to stay in the classroom and be a part of the school community. They are so happy to be back and are so excited to continue learning alongside their peers. Please help my students be able to stay safe in school!

My Project

As you may have heard, CPS has not provided enough cleaning and sanitizing products to schools and we are in need of supplies. We also need access to portable learning devices for flexible learning within the classroom. These supplies and items will be of great use in the classroom and will directly help students grow in their learning and being able to stay safe inside of the classroom. Please help us make up the gaps that are not being provided by the district. Thank you all very much, my amazing students and I appreciate it!
