My Project

Having basic supplies is essential and unfortunately many times my students come to school lacking those basic supplies. Plastic folders, pencils, borders, storage caddies, and glue sticks are just some of the supplies that we need to have a successful start to the year.

These supplies help us be successful learners.

Help us replenish our basic supplies so my students can continue to learn to their full potential. These basic supplies are used on a daily basis and many of my students are unable to purchase these at the beginning of the year.
