Odds and Ends - 1

Help me give my students colored pencils, dry erase markers, glue sticks, and folders to replace worn out, depleted, or lost supplies.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Horst's classroom raised $170

My Project

It's that time of year when our supplies are dwindling and getting worn out! Our glues sticks are gone. Our whiteboard markers need replacing as we use them almost daily along with our whiteboards in math and ELA classes. In addition, folders are in tatters and the colored pencils/markers are worn down.

Please help us stay organized by helping us replenish our everyday supplies so we can focus on learning!

It will be so nice to use our new supplies to end the year strong with all our projects and activities.
