Creating Class Shirts

Help me give my students cotton T-shirts with our school mascot to tie dye.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Shapiro's classroom raised $638

My Project

We are so excited to have the opportunity to design new grade level shirts for our students. It has been many years since we have created a new design.

These high quality white cotton shirts will be used to tie dye to create class shirts.

We invite family members to come help us tie dye at the beginning of the year and then we use our shirts on field trips and for special school-wide events throughout the year. Each class will use three different colors so that when we are all together people will be able to tell we are from the same school but since each class will use different colors to tie dye, we can easily tell who belongs with each class. This will build community among each class and the grade level as a whole.

This project will be broken into two parts to cover all five classes and 110 students. The students will be able to keep them at the end of the year.
