My students need organizational materials, such as notepads, in order to keep track of their daily homework assignments, and other important information such as teacher email addresses, website logins, and various dates to remember.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Garnier's classroom raised $256

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My classes consist of a very diverse group of 7th grade students, from a variety of backgrounds. Almost 75% of my students are eligible for free lunch. Most importantly, they are very bright and eager to learn.
The students in my classes are working hard towards a high-stakes ELA test, and they need all the materials they can get in order to help them reach their goals and achieve academic success.
They enjoy facilitating group discussions, and showing off their close-reading skills. My students are great collaborators, and together they form a tight-knit classroom community that I am extremely proud of.
My Project
Transitioning from elementary to middle school is a big adjustment. More classrooms, more teachers, more homework.
Naturally, students tend to underestimate this transition, and a lack of organization can cause them to quickly fall behind.
They try to remember everything, rarely writing anything down, especially their homework. Small, easy to carry notepads and folders would help to ensure that students are able to keep track of their daily homework assignments, test dates, and other important information like teacher email addresses, website logins, etc. As their teacher, I want to help students understand how staying organized can be a huge component of their success. This small, but essential step would greatly help my students reach their potential.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
