School Supplies to the Rescue!

Help me give my students school supplies such as pencil bags, erasers, pencils, and markers.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. D.De La Garza's classroom raised $368

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 Project

The requested supplies will be used for students that are in my classroom. It is important for me that every student have their own school supplies. We are requesting supplies such as highlighters, pencils, erasers, sharpeners, red pens, and pencil bags.

We need basic classroom supplies for our daily learning activities.

With the use of highlighters, my students will be able to highlight their strategies in their reading passages.

Help us meet our objectives in the classroom with these learning tools. We hope you'll consider supporting our classroom.

Thank you in advance!
