My Project

I have some wonderful kids who enter the ELA classroom ready and willing to learn. They are full of energy and curiosity.

Too often, these same children come to class with no school supplies with them; my students desperately need some basic materials that are required for success in their learning.

I need your help to provide paper, notebooks, pencils, colored pencils, highlighters, dry erase markers, and even facial tissues for these students.

Thank you ahead of time for being a fantastic hero to these great 7th and 8th graders.
