Back to the Basics!

Help me give my students more basic supplies to help us finish out the year strong!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Andrews's classroom raised $170

My Project

As we enter into the 3rd quarter of school, many of our basic supplies have been running low. Things like copy paper and pencils seem to have grown legs and walked away, and our automatic pencil sharpener decided to retire.

Please help replenish these basic classroom supplies that help keep our classroom run smoothly!

These supplies are used daily in my classroom and are a true necessity to help my students succeed. Whether the paper is used for a fun craft activity, or for students to be able to take a reading comprehension passage to practice at home - the copy paper will not go unused. The pencils provide the opportunity to immediately get to work, no matter if they have a pencil of their own, and the automatic pencil sharpener will ensure no time is lost when their pencil inevitably breaks. Please consider donating to my classroom to help us finish the second half of the school year strong!
