Back to School Supplies

Help me give my students supplies to start the year off right: twistable crayons for each student, headphones to use with Ipads, and an electric pencil sharpener and glue sticks (Kindergarten students go through these like water!)

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ramos's classroom raised $397

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

School is starting and I have been getting my classroom ready to go. I am excited to have my Kindergarten students come to my class and want to make sure we have everything we need to start the year off right and have them be successful.

We need basic supplies such as a pencil sharpener, twistable crayons, glue sticks and headphones to use with our Ipads so we don't disturb our neighbors.

Having these items will be a game changer in getting our year off to a great start! Thank you for your support in helping us get these items for our classroom.
