My Project

Thank you for your interest in my classroom! As a first-year teacher, I am passionate about providing enriching educational experiences for my students, particularly those from underprivileged backgrounds.

Many of our students come from low-income families and do not have access to basic laboratory supplies needed for hands-on science experiments.

With your generous support, we can change that. By providing essential chemistry supplies, we can transform our classroom into a dynamic laboratory where students can experience hands-on learning.

Your donation will directly impact the learning experiences of our students by enabling them to build models, observe molecular bonding, discover chemical reactions, and explore atomic structures firsthand. By investing in this project, you are not only equipping our students with the tools they need to succeed in STEM fields but also empowering them to pursue their dreams and reach their full potential.

Thank you for considering supporting our classroom. Together, we can ignite curiosity, inspire discovery, and make a lasting impact on the lives of these incredible young minds.

Mrs. Strickland
Grades 9-12
