FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Gionti's classroom raised $500

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

Most students at my high-needs school qualify for the free lunch program, which means they cannot obtain the most basic school supplies, such as pens and pencils. My students are a bright, enthusiastic group who genuinely enjoy learning. It saddens me that they often go without their much-needed school supplies.

For this project, I am requesting basic classroom supplies, including copy paper, pens, markers, and pencils.

The sticky notes will help students add depth to their annotations, while the folders will greatly help students stay organized. With these supplies, students can participate in the day's lesson and complete projects without worrying about having the needed resources.

Without the basic tools used for studying, students cannot grow as readers, writers, and thinkers. My students see themselves as scholars, and there is no reason why they should be without the most basic school supplies.
