Help me give my students supplies they need and decor for a calming atmosphere

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Carpenter's classroom raised $239

This project is fully funded

My Project

Helping them get what they need to be successful. My students are in need of a lot to be successful and have families that are unable to fund supplies for their education. We are in desperate need of basic materials like markers and headphones. We also have a lot of trauma which results in the need for a calm atmosphere which can be supported with lights and plants.

We really appreciate any support and help of any kind that you can provide to us to make our room more comfortable to learn.
