My Project

Art can help every child learn and grow as an individual. These supplies will provide my students the opportunity to create hands-on projects that are just as unique as them. From experience and during my own research, I have found that children love to create and get messy.

I teach K-5 and with almost 800 students, these supplies will be put to great use and will allow for all of my grade levels to create something exciting and different.

My school provides a variety of specials for students, such as PE, Martial Arts, Music, Spanish and of course Art. These supplies will help my students have a well-rounded education, which will lead to a successful school year.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
