Fresh Outta Pencils But Still Shooting for the Stars
Help me give my students the supplies they need to be successful in fifth grade. We are fresh outta paper and pencils in our class and we could really use your help to hit the ground running!
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 fifth graders come to school eager to learn, but often times don't have the means to supply the basic items necessary to set them up for success. I aim to change that with this project.
I don't want my kids and their families to stress about basic supplies like pencils, paper, crayons, and folders and I want to help them learn how to keep their belongings organized within the classroom.
They will be heading to middle school next year so this is their last year in the protective environment of elementary school. I want to send them off with not only the academic and social emotional skills they need, but also the organizational skills that are so essential.
Please help me help my kids start out fifth grade prepared with all their essentials, regardless of their family's financial situation.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
