Creative Kinders: Art Supplies for Big Imaginations!
Help me give my students art supplies such as stampers, watercolor paper, oil pastels, tissue paper and more to build their fine motor skills and give them a chance to express themselves through art!
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 kindergarteners love expressing themselves through art, but my supply shelf is running low and the new school year is coming bringing a whole new group of students! I'm asking for engaging art materials like watercolor paper, stamps, oil pastelss, collage materials etc... to help bring my students' creativity to life. With your support, my students will be able to explore colors, shapes, and self-expression while building fine motor skills and confidence through joyful, hands-on learning.
Many new immigrants find their first home on American soil here at our school.
Our school is located above the hustle and bustle of the geographic center of our city. Education is very important to our thriving, multi-cultural neighborhood. Eighty-five percent of students are English learners with non-English speakers in the home.
Every child deserves the chance to create art and experience the joy that creativity can bring. Thank you for helping me make that possible!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
