Basic Supply Project

My students need pencils, eraser tops and tissues. This is a call to refill basic classroom supplies.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Lapin's classroom raised $445

This project is fully funded

My Students

Students are eager to learn in school. In order to keep school running smoothly it is best to have a ready supply of pencils, erasers, and tissues.

Our school is a large urban inner city elementary school on the east coast..

The students are happy to be in school and eager to learn. We are a title one school, every student is eligible for free breakfast and lunch. Almost ninety percent of the students walk to school.

My Project

Students will use pencils, erasers, and tissues everyday as we work through writing, science, social studies, nutrition, and all of the lessons of the day. Students will use paper and pencil in every area of elementary school. In addition students are also allowed to take a pencil home to do their homework.

Donations for this project will improve the procedures and routines in the classroom as every student will have easy access to pencils, erasers, and tissues.

In addition students may also take a pencil and eraser home to use to complete their homework.
