My Project

Studies have shown that when students are equipped with basic school supplies, they are more successful. Providing my students with paper, pencils, dry erase markers and other creative materials (for encouragement) will boost morale and social development.

My goal for this project is to provide students, whose parents may not be able to afford school supplies, with the basic essentials so that they may be afforded the same opportunities to achieve success, just as their peers.

I am excited to say that I teach a very special population of students. They are all very smart, capable, and have a desire to succeed.
