My Project

This project includes just some of the materials that are needed to get the school year started in my classroom. With teaching AP Environmental Science for the first time this semester, I am lacking many materials. My school has not been able to place any supply orders, and school starts next week. Please help out my classroom by donating what you can. A science class cannot function without lab materials, especially an AP science class. Any donation goes a long way, and I appreciate you donating to the future of America.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
