Classroom Basics for Band!

Help me give my students basic classroom supplies to help kick off the new year!

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Mosby's classroom raised $292

My Project

Classroom basics are so important for a successful school year. Without these supplies, its very hard to carry out our teaching responsibilities and give our students the best education possible.

My students need classroom supplies including pens and copy paper.

Our band copies a lot music, but we also may concert programs and send out many "Thank you" cards to our supporters. Copy paper is essential to carry these important tasks. We also would like to have colored pens to help keep information organized and to make our cards and posters a little more colorful.
