My Project

My eager ICT students come to school no matter what the weather and always put their best foot forward. Being from a low socio-economic area Title I school doesn't stop my super smart learners. My students need math tools for teaching measurement and comparison. We need paper to organize our thoughts and findings. We need to stay organized with papers, and to learn study skills and organization the Lakeshore Tabletop Paper Center is needed. Finally needed are colorful crayons to make the super smart learners' work pop! We also need tissues for all of these silly issues!

Thank you for your consideration and donation,

Ms. Wishy
