My Project

My students come to school each day eager to learn and develop their academic skills. They strive to do their best during reading and math instruction. Due to their commitment to learning, we work closely together in small group settings.

Having Lysol wipes, Kleenex, and hand sanitizer readily available in the classroom, will help to reduce the spread of germs.

We need to have these items on hand to minimize school absenteeism due to the spread of illness.

Additionally, having extra snacks available for students to use in the classroom will help to provide nutrition to the students. No student should miss instruction due to hunger. Therefore, having nutritional supplies on hand is necessary for learning to continue throughout the day.
