My Project

To keep up with the high volume of student output, I am asking for a student mailbox to put all papers that need to go home into, folders to keep their classwork neat, organized, and in their desks, plastic bins to keep rulers, color pens, scissors, and many more items in, and front covers for our projects (we use the overhead film for these projects). Especially at this time of year, getting ready for starting school we do our best to provide the students with the opportunity for success. We have found that helping them to organize their material encourages their success. Your support would allow the students to keep their unfinished work in a folder until they are ready to turn it in or put it in their mailbox to take home.

A student mailbox will give my students the opportunity to stay organized and remember to take important papers home.

Your donation will help me to provide my students with the tools they need to learn lifelong important skills and be successful.
