My Project

I have been working hard this summer to do what I can to upgrade my classroom, including painting it myself! That said, there are some other improvements I would like to make that would require financial backing. A well-organized, comfortable classroom helps students stay focused, confident, and ready to learn. This project will provide a sturdy bookshelf, a storage shelf that doubles as a bench, and fluorescent light covers that will transform our classroom into a calmer, more inviting space.

Organized materials make it easier for students to find what they need independently, while softer lighting creates a more comfortable environment for reading, writing, and collaboration.

These simple improvements will reduce distractions, maximize instructional time, and help every student feel welcome. Your generosity will create a classroom where organization and comfort support learning every single day!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
