My Project

I am starting a Giving Closet. The purpose of the closet is for students to be able to get essential items while at school. I have a great amount students who arrive to school late. Sometimes they can be way after breakfast but too early for lunch.

This should not be a reason a student should not eat!

The items I have placed on my list will supplement students until they are able to get a school meal. These items will not interrupt class and will keep students focused. Thank you!

Ms. Irving L Douglas Wilder Middle School Grades 6-8
