My Project

We are reaching out to ask for your generous support by donating snacks, pencil sharpeners, and water to help our students during the upcoming State Assessment MCAP. Your donation will provide essential supplies to keep our students refreshed, focused, and excited about testing.

By contributing to our project, you will help ensure that our students have the necessary tools to excel in ELA, Math, and Social Studies.

Healthy snacks and water will keep them energized and hydrated, while pencil sharpeners will ensure they are fully prepared to complete their tests. These supplies not only support their immediate testing needs but also promote overall academic achievement.

Your support will directly impact our students’ ability to perform at their best during this critical testing period.

Thank you for considering this request and for helping us empower our students to reach their full potential!
