My Project

Help us create an enriched learning space for our enthusiastic first-grade students! We're seeking your support to acquire a classroom rug and other calming items that will transform our learning environment.

A calming classroom is more than just decor.

It's a hub for collaboration, comfort, and creativity. With your contribution, you'll be:

Boosting Comfort: Provide a cozy spot for focused learning, making lessons more engaging and enjoyable.

Promote Safety: With designated spaces on the rug, we ensure physical distancing while engaging in interactive activities.

Cultivate Connection: Despite the distance, the rug unites us during virtual meetings and activities, fostering a sense of togetherness.

We're excited to introduce a project that will enhance their learning journey while considering the ongoing impact of COVID-19.
