My Project

Please consider giving my students sharpies to work on their projects. We use sharpies almost daily in the art room and there is nothing that beats the feeling of working with a brand new sharpie.

With your help, my students would be able to pop open a brand new sharpie and create beautiful artwork.

I try to include sharpies in my budget every year, but it almost always is never enough to keep up with how much my students love working with them. With these sharpies, students will outline projects, make projects bolder and help their projects stand out from the rest. We also use sharpies on our weekly drawings that we take home!
