My Project

We are a small school in central Texas, near Ft. Cavazo and near several state prisons. Our students are fairly transient. Many of our students come to school with out the supplies needed to learn. We are always scrambling to find enough of the needed supplies for our kids.

I am actually writing this for our campus.

All of the folders, binders, clipboards will be used by all of our teachers and students. The colored paper will be used for special projects as needed. If you were to fund these supplies, then our teachers would be able to their personal money on other needed supplies. Thank you for considering our request.
