Back to School Basics

Help me give my students the supplies they need to learn, grow, and succeed. Many of them come to school without essentials. Your support makes it possible for every child to feel ready to thrive in our classroom

My Project

Help give my students the tools they need to succeed!

I teach an amazing group of young learners who show up every day full of curiosity, kindness, and resilience.

What I love most about my students is their enthusiasm for learning and the way they support each other like a little classroom family. Many of them come to school without basic supplies like pencils, paper, crayons, or markers. With your support, I can make sure every child feels prepared and included. Even small donations make a big impact in helping my students grow and thrive.

Some other items we need for our classroom are magnetic shelves for our whiteboard, a paper cutter, and a mailbox-style storage container for construction paper. We would like some cleaning supplies as well.
