Help me give my students the basic school supplies that some of them may not be able to afford so that they can go to class prepared and be successful citizens within their school.
We as educators are able to teach with great technology, however sometimes standing and doing can be a strain on the body, hence the request for a high top chair with wheels. Also, many students come to school without the basic things they need to be successful, we provide pencils, however there are 180 days of schools and we go through many, many pencils. In teaching math, I tend to color code when working on the whiteboard or the smart board and having a variety of colors is a necessity.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
