Essential Classroom Furniture for a Fresh Start

Help me give my students a welcoming classroom with essentials like a rug, stools, and bookcases.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Banuelos's classroom raised $1,070

This project is fully funded

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 students are curious, creative, and full of potential. Each item in this project will help them feel comfortable, focused, and ready to learn. A rug gives us a welcoming space for group discussions and read alouds, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Stools offer flexible seating that encourages collaboration, movement, and engagement. Bookcases help us organize our materials so students can easily access books and supplies independently, fostering responsibility.

These resources will help create a classroom where students feel at home, supported, and excited to grow and explore every day.
