My Students

I teach at a wonderful public charter school. Our school has an arts integration focus and students have enrichment classes that teach art, PE/movement and Hawaiian Studies. My students are all are engaged learners that truly love learning. My students are motivated learners that arrive each day ready to succeed! Our school community is very diverse; we have students living in 26 different zip codes! I am so blessed to work with such talented students, alongside supportive and caring colleagues, in a fabulous school environment. Mahalo nui loa (thank you very much) for your consideration.

My Project

I am requesting basic school supplies that my students need. There are supplies that we use on a daily basis that are much needed in our room. I am requesting poster board, cardstock, washable markers, colorful expo markers, rolls of refill transparent tape and a marker holder for my students to use. These materials will allow my students to create posters for many projects and use our whiteboard tables during lessons and will surely be used each and every day in our busy classroom. Mahalo nui loa for your consideration of donation to our project. You are very much appreciated!
