My Project

Classroom basics, such as pencils and glue sticks, are always needed. Even students who showed up in September fully stocked with their back-to-school supplies need some essentials by January.

Being able to offer every student classroom basics such as pencils, erasers, and highlighters means every child will have what they need to learn and feel included in our community.

Setting up a classroom space so that all of my third graders have access to materials necessary for learning, including rulers and clipboards, is essential. Plus, students learn to care for our shared materials and feel more connected as a class.
