My Project

This year, unfortunately, we do not have enough of the supplies that are needed for a successful school year. We are asking for your help in donating to this project to help us meet our students' basic needs.

Each student is lucky to have a chromebook to use for our reading program in the classroom but there is too much noise in the classroom for all students to focus.

They are in need of headphones to use with that program so that they can get the full benefits. Right now, we only have 4 boxes of crayons to share between 22 students. We need more to help their art projects and classroom come alive with color! The homework folders that we have sent home are paper folders and have already begun ripping, this early in the school year. Additionally, the copy paper will help us to provide the class with things such as story booklets for writing.

Any small donation to this project will greatly help this group of amazing 3rd graders, who are eager to learn.
