Stocking Our Classroom for Success

Help me give my students the supplies we will need for the school year to be successful

Ms. Griffin McClintock Middle School
Charlotte, NC Grades 6-8

My Project

What if a few simple supplies could transform a student's school day? For my students, access to basic classroom materials and an organized, welcoming learning environment means fewer distractions, greater confidence, and more opportunities to succeed.

By providing these everyday essentials, donors are helping create a classroom where students can focus on learning, problem-solving, and reaching their full potential.

Composition books will provide students with a dedicated space to record notes, work through problems, reflect on learning, and maintain interactive math journals throughout the year. Pencils are a basic necessity that ensures every student has the tools needed to participate fully in class, regardless of their family's ability to provide supplies.

To create a welcoming and calming learning environment, I am requesting classroom lights that will help reduce the harshness of fluorescent lighting and create a more comfortable atmosphere for students. A positive classroom environment helps students stay focused, reduces stress, and promotes productive learning.

Dry-erase markers and dry-erase board erasers are essential for daily instruction, allowing students and the teacher to model problem-solving, check understanding, and engage in interactive lessons. These materials make learning visible and encourage active participation.

Supply caddies will help keep classroom materials organized and easily accessible. Organized resources reduce instructional downtime, promote student responsibility, and ensure that learning tools are available when needed.

Finally, a pocket chart for storing calculators will provide a safe and organized storage solution for classroom calculators. Easy access to calculators supports math instruction while helping students develop independence and responsibility for shared resources.

These supplies will help create an organized, engaging, and student-centered classroom where all learners have the tools they need to succeed. Your support will directly impact students by providing resources that promote academic achievement, responsibility, and a positive learning environment.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
