My Project

The essential items I am requesting for the beginning of the school year, such as disinfecting wipes, tissues, laminating pouches, glue sticks, sticky notes, bandages, and pre-sharpened pencils, will greatly enhance our classroom environment. These supplies are crucial for maintaining cleanliness, organization, and preparedness, which are foundational for effective learning. My primary goals for this project are to ensure a healthy and organized classroom, increase student engagement, and support their academic success from the very start. By having these essentials, I aim to create a safe and welcoming space where students can focus on their learning without disruptions. My students are a diverse and vibrant group, each bringing unique perspectives and strengths to our classroom community. Despite facing various challenges, they consistently demonstrate resilience, curiosity, and a strong desire to learn. They thrive in an environment that is both clean and well-supplied, enabling them to fully engage in their educational experiences. Your support in funding this project will make a significant impact on their daily lives and contribute to a successful school year.
