My Students

Hello everyone! It’s a new normal at our Title 1 school like never before. My students come from backgrounds where monetary funds are minimal and school supplies such as notebooks, pencils, uniforms and book bags and more. I am requesting these basic school supplies to equip my students to use in school and at home for this new Blended Learning School Year. My students love learning, but often do not have their basic supplies to write and read online books. They come to school and borrow pencils, crayons or scissors to complete a project, rulers and tape measure to do math and science activities, loose leaf paper for written projects, highlighters or get a notebook from the teacher. They need these tools to work with during the day or take one home to complete homework. Help me give my students the tools that “we think” they can afford, but it’s not always the case. These supplies will put a smile on the parents faces as well as the students during this difficult time.

My Project

A mind is a terrible thing to waste! My students love to learn and make things. Let's give my students the tools they will need to continue their learning through these challenging times. Some have parents and caregivers who have lost their jobs or death of a parent or caregiver and can't get the supplies they will need.

Help me put the smiles back on my students faces with all the things they will need to learn as they start a new way of learning whether school reopens remotely or traditionally.

They will be so very appreciative.

Thank you in advance!
