My Project

My students are in need of a few basics to start our school year off on the right foot. We need pencils to complete daily writing and math activities, we need copy paper for making copies of worksheets that will be used in math, science, reading and social studies. Finally, we need tissue for our noses! In addition to the paper, pencils and tissue, I am asking for some florescent light covers to help create a calm classroom environment. Reducing florescent lighting will also help reduce or eliminate headaches that florescent lighting can sometimes cause.
