My Project

My students are so fun, so hungry to learn and full of excitement for school and their classmates! They enjoy hands-on projects that they get to be involved in so arts and craft, counting materials, and different type objects and tools are so helpful in the class. They are learning their sounds, numbers and words. Some of our older students have moved on to reading! We would LOVE and appreciate help getting support with these items for our primary class. Thank you so much for the donation to help our kids grow and learn!
