My Project

Seventh grade is such a challenging year for our young people. It's the grade between stepping out of the early innocent years and into the mature early teen years. Our seventh graders need alot of support during this time of transition. The learning materials requested will give them the supports they need academically to help them navigate their math classes. Math can be challenging for many of us and without the right tools we can be easily discouraged. These materials will help our youngsters face these challenges with confidence and hope. Our bodies are also growing and changing. The other materials will help our young women in their time of need and last but not least who doesn't need a pick me up snack sometimes. The stomach is the pathway to the heart. Help me show our 7th graders that they are loved and recognized!!!
