My Project

Hey there! We're the 3rd-grade reading jockeys of ULES. Our team is full of energy and excitement, always ready to take on the day's tasks. We come from different backgrounds and face various challenges, but we show up every day ready to give our best. We rely on the support of the school community, staff, and each other to make it to the finish line.

Our daily essentials like headphones, pencils, erasers, pencil sharpeners, seat pouches and interactive buzzers are crucial for us to saddle up and take on our daily assignments, creative projects, and lessons.

Being prepared for class is super important, and having the right materials makes a big difference for a lot of us.

Coming to class with the supplies we need helps us overcome challenges that are out of our control, and we are grateful for the support. Thanks for your understanding and support!
