My Project

The end of the school year can be very bittersweet. I am hoping to create some fun memories to finish off the year with my firsties. I am asking for snacks, juice, backpacks, beachballs, and sunglasses for my students.

These backpacks, sunglasses, snacks, and juice boxes will help provide fun-filled memories!

My students have worked so hard all year and deserve an end of the year celebration with their classmates. I am asking for a variety of snacks to fill their backpack with along with fun summer items to keep students active and engaged. My students come from a 100% free lunch school and will have limited snacks without our help!

Having fun activities and tasty snacks will be appreciated and enjoyed by my first graders.
