My Project

As we've reached the second half of the year, we are out of basic supplies we need to be productive. We have officially run out of classroom essentials! We are all out of pencils! Students need many of these items to get us through the rest of the year, including common classroom materials.

This cold season has been drastic on our tissue donation supply and we just need enough to get us to the end of the year.

Binders are falling apart and students are using ducktape to try to make it last longer. Please help us to make it to the end of the year. We are hanging on with a broken string.
