Classroom Comfort and Care

Help me give my students sweatpants and leggings for our care / sports closet.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Fitzhugh's classroom raised $902

My Project

The Flagship Carpets Rebordered Squares Educational Rug is a classroom rug built especially for classrooms. It will make the class more inviting and comfortable in the new school year. Since it is for a middle school classroom, it will be in a place that doesn't have all the traffic, but it will be a place where kids can choose to sit if they are doing individual work during the class period. It will be a flexible seating area.

Having enough leggings and sweatshirts for our care closet is very important to keep our middle school going.

Accidents happen and sometimes kids need a change of pants to keep going through the day. We also have students who need to borrow pants for sports and tryouts. Their parents may not be able to bring clothing or they may not have the extra clothing at home to use. These care closet items have been a necessity in our school throughout the school year. The mint basket and mints will be for motivational mint Mondays. On Monday's mints will be put out for kids to help them concentrate and think on Mondays. They can grab one on their way into the classroom. The keyboard will be used with the teacher podium. It can help make things easier to use when the laptop is not easily accessible with the Smartboard hookup. Thankfully my donor angels really help us with these items and our students very much appreciate them being available when they need it.
