My Project

My incoming students need essential supplies for the beginning of the school year. They need sturdy folders for writing and home communication. They need boxes of flair pens. We will use flair pens for writing, solving math problems, and drawing. We also need boxes of Crayola crayons for illustrating our writing. Our first project with the crayons will be when we draw our September self portraits.

Your donation will help me to provide my students with essential supplies that they will need in the beginning of the year.

Please consider supporting my students!
