My Project

Please help me provide school supplies so students can complete their STEM projects and Book Club projects. Students will use all these supplies to use their creative minds and create posters, flyers, pamphlets, anything they can use their minds and hands to do.

Students need time off the computer so they can work with their hands and create!

All of these items will give them the tools necessary to use their brains and have a creative outlet to complete school projects.

My students are the best in the world. They come from 80 different countries and speak many different languages. Allowing them to come to school with all the supplies provided takes one thing off their plate while they are learning our culture and the English language.
