Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

This project includes basic school supplies to keep my students organized and ready to learn.

This project includes new pencils, erasers, and pens for my students to start the school year.

Unfortunately, some students will arrive at school without any supplies. Having these items on hand will ensure that no student will go without writing tools. This project also includes pencil cases to keep our supplies organized and within reach in the classroom. My classroom is used by children of all ages and abilities. All supplies have to be kept where students can easily access them without assistance as they are learning to be independent.
