Creating a Calming, Beautiful Classroom

Help me give my students a calming, inviting classroom that they will love.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Williams's classroom raised $173

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My classroom is the foundation for my student's educational journey. My classroom is their first view of what their schooling will be like.

Here they learn how to write, share, explore and learn.

It is very important for them to have a positive first experience. With your help I want to create a beautiful classroom that will help ease their worry about being in school and make a setting that is child friendly.

My classroom is like a second home for me and my students and I take great pride in making it feel cozy and comfortable.
