My Project

Spring cleaning is in the air!! Please consider helping us organize our materials so they are more accessible to students! We would love containers to store and organize, a label maker to help label items, as well as some new materials for the classroom that have been used up this year (highlighters, markers, etc.)

I have a lot of incredible items for my students, but I need help organizing them, so they are easier to access.

Please consider donating to my project. It would have a huge impact! I appreciate your consideration!
