EC Classroom Needing Special Attention!

Help me give my students a furnished and comfortable classroom as I start from scratch in my 3rd year of teaching. My TA is leaving but all the furniture and supplies belong to her.

Mrs. Shepherd Bell Fork Elementary School
Jacksonville, NC Grades 3-5

My Project

I absolutely love the unique needs of each of my students. Allowing them the opportunity to learn in a safe and comfortable environment has proven to be a great success since I've started this career.

My TA has been the most amazing help with starting my teaching, but is now ready yo move on to teach her own classroom.

Because she built the furniture with her father, she is rightfully taking it with her to build her own classroom. Now, we need help to fully furnish and supply my classroom since we're starting from scratch.

Our students do not always come from good homes, and I take pride in making them feel at home in my room. All furniture and supplies are selected for them, their needs, and functionality in our unique setting.
