As we begin a brand-new school year, I’m reaching out with a heartfelt request to help set our students up for success from day one.
Having the right supplies in the classroom plays a powerful role in helping students feel confident, prepared, and ready to learn.
When students have access to basic materials like pencils, notebooks, and folders, they can focus more on their lessons and less on what they may be missing. Supplies like dry erase boards, markers, and hands-on learning tools encourage engagement and make learning interactive and fun.
I’m blessed to teach a wonderful group of students who are eager to learn, grow, and thrive—but many of them face challenges that make it difficult to come to school fully prepared. With your support, we can ensure every child walks into the classroom feeling confident and equipped to take on the year ahead.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
