Basic Supplies Needed...We Have Depleted Our Supplies

Help me give my students the basic school supplies that are needed. We have run through our supplies and need more pens, notebooks, staplers, cardstock, and dry erase markers.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Sandoval's classroom raised $474

My Project

We have depleted a lot of our basic classroom supplies and we are not even to December yet.

We are in need of Expo Dry erase markers badly as we use these every day to practice our math.

Both of the staplers that I bought at Goodwill at the beginning of the year have broken and we are in need of staplers as well. We are in need of cardstock, markers and pens as we do not have any.

I work at a Title I School and many of my students were unable to provide supplies at the beginning of the year due to not having enough family finances. Many families could only buy school supplies for one of their children and it usually went to the youngest member of the family.

My students want to come to school. School is their safe haven. They are safe here, they are fed here, and they are cared for here. This is great news, however we need supplies, so they can be successful in learning. We are low on supplies. Our gas light is on empty.
