My classroom is made up of diverse learners who come to school everyday ready to learn. We are a title 1 school in an urban community where all of our students qualify for free and reduced lunch. At the start of the pandemic we had to remove ALL of our furniture. What we were slowly given back to our classroom is old and mismatched and do not fit my little learners. The goal for my classroom is to make every child feel welcome and fall in love with learning. Kindergarten is a magical grade where children learn to read, write, and grow. With donors like you, I have been able to transform my classroom into a place that is engaging and fun to be. Donors have helped give my classroom the necessary materials that I would not be able to fund myself or get funded through our district. All your support is greatly appreciated and makes a difference in my kinders school experience!
