Help me give my students access to simple classroom essentials like book baggies, dry erase pockets, and colored pencils!
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. S. Garofalo's classroom raised $222

My Project
As a second grade teacher, I’m seeking funding for several essential items that will greatly benefit my classroom.
We need a stool for our classroom library, dry erase pocket protectors to proudly display student work, zip pouches to use as book baggies for organizing student reading materials, and colored pencils that represent a variety of "people colors" to promote inclusivity in our artwork.
Additionally, I’m requesting plastic wrap to protect our bookshelves and books at the end of the school year from dust. These items will help create a more organized, inclusive, and creative learning environment for my students. Your support in funding these resources will enhance our classroom experience, making it a place where every student feels valued and excited to learn.
