My Project

As a teacher in a title l building with about 75% of students coming from low income homes, most students do not come to school with supplies other than a backpack.

This project is simple, but so important.

Pencil pouches and folders for all students will make sure that all students are set up for a successful academic year with organizational tools and supplies to get them started. The bulk products included in this project will be enough to cover my class for one year with a few left over for next year! My students often have many obstacles to face in their personal lives. Providing them with supplies takes one thing off their plates.
