My Project

I am looking for some assistance in fueling my students with some brain food! I run our school's After School Program on Mondays-Thursdays. Our 6th grade students eat lunch at 11:05 each day, I would like to be able to offer them a little treat while they work on getting caught up/understanding math concepts on their own time after school.

This is open to all of our sixth graders, needing a quiet place to work or need help on specific topics.

We offer this to students especially that are struggling to understand new concepts or have been absent due to various reasons, it allows them to get caught up in a smaller classroom setting! Thanks for your consideration!

Mrs. Lechner will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by June 1.
