My Project

As we gear up for another exciting school year, it is important for my students to have their supplies ready on the first day. When students walk into their new classrooms with everything they need, it really sets a positive tone for the year ahead.

With your support, we can ensure that brand-new school supplies are waiting for them—things like glue sticks, pencils, pencil boxes, notebooks, and whiteboards.

These items are not just nice to have; they’re essential for our daily activities. Notebooks, in particular, are crucial for our core subjects of reading, writing, and math. Students will use whiteboards throughout the day to quickly share their thoughts and ideas.

This year, we’re also introducing composition books for writing. These notebooks will help students brainstorm, organize their thoughts, and effectively get their ideas down on paper. I believe this will greatly enhance their writing skills!

Thanks so much for your support in making this happen. Let’s work together to create a smooth start for my students!
