FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cox's classroom raised $1,015

My Project

I have just gotten hired on at the NSD as a second-grade teacher. While I don't have the exact number of students I will be teaching yet I do anticipate having enough supplies to start the year with 30 students.

These materials are a variety of supplies, prize bin toys, decorations for my room, and even some learning tools as well.

There is a wide variety of things it takes to start a classroom and make it welcoming and comfy especially from ground zero!

Most of the students come from rough home environments and financial situations. My goal is to help them feel comfortable and loved at school and like they matter. If having unique classroom décor and special things to make them feel this way then I will do anything possible!

I cannot wait to meet these students of mine in the fall and by donating to this project you can help them have a great school year!

Thank you for your support!
