My Project

Many cases of students lacking success in their classrooms have to do with students’ level of preparedness. Having something as simple as markers, crayons, and Sharpie markers can determine the progress and achievement of the student. School supplies impact the success of the student in ways that most people fail to recognize. In fact, many students are never truly prepared for the day because they come to class lacking supplies, thus leading to a difficult time learning.

That said, school supplies play a very important role in education and how students grow and develop, as we discuss below.
