My Project

Supplies are for school year 24-25. Some necessary items so students can be successful.

These are items are used often by a lot of hands so having them in bulk is so helpful.

Pencil sharpeners get used numerous times daily. Scissors get lost or broken and need to be replenished. With 90 students and focus on hand writing things, I print a lot of worksheets. And headphones are used as a reward. It's common for students to focus better when they can listen to music. Headphones are also used for video lessons or online work that requires sound.
