A Rack For Our Knapsacks

My students need a mobile backpack storage cart for more space.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Wright's classroom raised $279

This project is fully funded

My Students

With large class sizes comes more and more backpacks. These bulky items take up a lot of space in our classroom. We need all the space we can get!

My students are the most amazing students.

They have been through a year that no child should have to go through. They have seen a town torn apart. Having a safe, bright classroom ensures that we can focus on our learning. This cart will help us to free up some more space!

My Project

We need a backpack cart. This will let us get our backpacks out into the hallway and out of our way! We can use our closet space for centers and small group. It is not a huge space, but all the room helps! This will also help to keep our belongings safe.

As a school district we have gone through a lot this year.

My students have supported each other in the most amazing ways. The way they care for each other is beautiful. Giving them a great classroom is a small part of helping them recover from a long road.
