My Students

Our First Graders are the best! They have tons of energy and are always excited to learn something new.

Our First Graders are smart and spunky.

They are prepped by our wonderful Kindergarten teachers. They come to school ready to tackle the day. Our school is full of passionate, dedicated teachers and super supportive parents. We provide a well rounded educational experience with several extracurricular classes such as art, music, science lab, and computer lab.

My Project

We need the backpack cart to organize student backpacks and to make sure our classroom is a safe place to be. We want as much space as possible for centers and other learning encounters. Moving the backpacks onto the cart and right outside of room would make for the best learning environment for our students.

Donating to help purchase the backpack cart would help kick off our school year on the right foot.

We want to make sure the kids learn a daily routine of unpacking their folders and lunches and hanging their backpacks onto the cart.
