Back to Basics

Help me give my students an equitable start of the school year by providing basic materials and supplies for their 4th grade year.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jang's classroom raised $847

My Project

I am asking for basic materials and new school-year supplies for my students so that they can get the same head start as every other student in this country. Basic supplies can make the difference between a successful year and a difficult one as we scramble for the necessities.

My students are go-getters and your support would mean so much for their long-term success in this school year.

I always teach my students to be prepared before a lesson begins. I would like them to be prepared as we begin this new school year.
