Celebrate and Nourish: Fueling Success with Delicious End-of-Year Party Snacks

Help me give my students a fun and memorable end-of-year party by providing delicious snacks that they can enjoy while celebrating their achievements and hard work throughout the year.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Wimberly's classroom raised $634

My Project

I absolutely love my students' curiosity and eagerness to learn. They come from diverse backgrounds and bring unique perspectives to the classroom, which makes for a vibrant and enriching learning environment. What makes my students special is their resilience and determination to overcome reading challenges and succeed in their academic pursuits. They have demonstrated a strong work ethic and a growth mindset, which inspires me every day to be a better teacher and mentor.

An end-of-year party will provide them with an opportunity to reflect on their progress and to feel proud of their accomplishments.

In addition to the impact on academic outcomes, the end-of-year party with delicious snacks will also serve as a fun and memorable way to celebrate our students' success in reaching their reading goals.
