My Students

My students are very involved with our classroom pets. They have become part of our community and families. Please help us care for them. Our pets are teaching students responsibility, care and most importantly love. Any help you could provide so we can keep these animals would be most appreciated.

My school district is small but mighty!

Families may struggle financially, but make up for this with love. This is a tight community that depends on each other. The students here are by far the best kids I have ever met.

My Project

Students will use these pet supply materials to care for our classroom pets. The students from the second week of school take on all responsibility for the classroom animals. These pets have become part of the learning process as well as the classroom family. The students love taking care of the animals and any spare minute is devoted to them.

The donations of this project will improve the classroom by keeping the classroom community that we have.

Students are learning responsibility as well are care and compassion for the animals.
