Creativity Made Timeless

Help me give my students a chance to save their work forever with a laminating machine.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. McCarthy's classroom raised $302

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

This is already a fantastic year. I love my kindergarten class. My students are inquisitive, funny, smart, and creative. I would love to give my students all the supplies they need to thrive in school and motivate them to be creative.

I want to use the Scotch Laminator machine to preserve my student's work and make it a special experience to bring it home and save forever.

The children will learn independence by using the pencil sharpener on their own. The new crayons will motivate them to do their "best" work. All these new tools and supplies will only benefit the children.

I look forward to giving these supplies to my students and sharing their work with you. Thank you.
