My Project

My students are adventurous and love to use their creativity to create all sorts of crafts and projects. We're in constant need for classroom essentials like markers, crayons and drawing paper for various activities. Plastic sleeves and folders keep us organized and allows us to reuse materials over and over, which gives our students the opportunity to recycle, reuse and reduce the amount of materials used. The majority of our student work is curriculum based and we live to showcase their progress and dedication to growth throughout our classroom and share with friends outside the classroom as well, hence, the more tape we have, the better! Thank you for considering our project and we hope to get this funded so our students can continue their colorful and exciting adventures!
