My Project

These classroom supplies will help each of my kindergarten students feel like they have what they need for school. Kindergarten is filled with so much new exciting learning! We will use paper, markers, glues, etc. to make learning fun and engaging. The best way to enhance students learning is by piquing their interest. These supplies ensure we have more than just paper and pencils to grow.

Through your donations, students will be able to come to school knowing they still have the opportunity to be successful.

The supplies will directly support our learning, fun, growth, and independence as we move through the school year.
