My Project

Our school is in a low-income neighborhood. My students, who are a diverse mix of cultures, attend a school that strives to give them an excellent education. Many of them are first-generation Americans and are excited to be in school.

We need to embrace these cultures and backgrounds!

Please help me to have the supplies needed to allow our students to create art that better represents their culture and backgrounds.

Help promote self esteem with art supplies--cutouts, crayons, markers, colored pencils and multicultural construction paper to show the beauty of everyone in my class!

Ms. Zahnijnyj PS 106 Parkchester Grades 3-5
