My Project

Help me give my students pencils, and tissues for the cold season. It is that time of year and it is crucial that students have tissues and hand sanitizer to help stop the spread of germs and keep our kids healthy. There has been a lot of sickness going around that has caused many absences.

Tissues and hand sanitizer are always supplies that need to be replenished within the year.

It is also something I do not burden students to buy and bring in. I do not want to have them worry about this.
