Clear Backpacks

Help me give my students more freedom to carry their items safely and feel prepared for class everyday

Ms. Nicholls Harry H Herndon Elementary School
Fate, TX Grades 3-5

My Students

My students are all wonderful and super energetic. They have a lot of energy and love to work together in groups. I love how my students can make me laugh in any situation and even when we are trying to work they will still try to make me laugh!

My Project

My students have a lot to carry when they switch classes and they often drop their Chromebook. With these backpacks the students will be able to carry all the supplies they will need for class and have no trouble transporting everything. These backpacks will make it easier for my students to feel prepared for class and not worry if they are going to be able to carry everything they need. Also by having these backpacks the students won't miss out on the fun and engaging technology activities we plan for in class.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
