My Project

We are in need of shorts for our clothing pantry. These items students can use when they are in need of a change of clothes. Pants are items we use often, because we have students who have accidents, spill food on themselves, and fall down at recess time. If students do not have clean and dry clothes, it is very hard for them to learn the way they should be able to.

Our goal is to have our scholars in school so they can learn and have the best environment ready for them.

Making sure they are clean and dry is something basic we can do to provide the best learning experience for every student as we come back from break and celebrate the lunar new year!
