My Project

Please help me furnish the essentials I need to run my classroom to help ensure student success! Most items are around $10. These essential items are so important to my students; your assistance and generosity will help them improve grades, spark their creativity, instill positive attitudes towards learning, help with confident behavior, help build peer relationships and support self-image.

Classroom essentials, like these supplies, foster a sense of inclusivity and belonging among students.

Having these essentials will help alleviate new school year anxiety.

Thank you for any support and assistance you can provide!
