My Project

Help me give my students basic classroom essentials like a pencil sharpener, whiteboards, whiteboard markers, and pencils for personalized learning to end the year off strong.

These essential classroom supplies will help my students with the supplies needed to succeed in school.

Pencils, a pencil sharpener, clipboards, whiteboard markers, and erasers will help students complete their daily math and science lessons. We are nearing the end of the year when supplies are running low and we would like to finish off the school year as strong as we started it.
