My Students

Have you ever not had enough money to buy your child extra school supplies? Well several of my parents are in that position. In my classroom, we got supplies at the beginning of the school year, and we've not run out! I have gotten seven new students, who can not afford to bring supplies with them.

My students are from a very low socioeconomic area with many challenges facing them.

These students do not have much support at their home, and when they come to school, they need all of our help. Our students love to come to school because it is a place that they know they are safe and loved.

My Project

These resources will change my students' lives for the better because they will have the proper materials to learn and enjoy school. By giving these students pencils, Kleenex, erasers, nonfiction books, and art supplies, they will be able to reach their fullest potential. They will be able to get to do extra activities because of these supplies!

This project is SO important to our class because we are literally out of materials and it is only January.

As their teacher, I have sent out letters saying that we are out of supplies and have received only two boxes of pencils and one box of Kleenex. If we do not receive these materials, I will have to buy them myself.
