Fueling Bright Futures: Supporting Back-to-School Supplies for Students in Need

Help me give my students supplies that will help get them excited about learning!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pryor's classroom raised $575

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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

This project is aimed at ensuring that my second grade students step into their new academic year equipped and empowered to succeed.

Each student possesses unique abilities and talents that deserve to be nurtured.

The art supplies like the water color paper will help create an inclusive and conducive learning environment that supports students’ growth. The students will get to have a more hands-on approach to learning with Magna-tiles and K'NEX. The supplies like the marble run and magnetic tiles will have the students practice sharing and communicating with their peers. They will get to learn about teamwork while playing.
