Great Beginnings, New Challenges

Help me give my students notebooks, headphones, binders, and other basic materials necessary to work on their subjects and reinforcement activities during the upcoming school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pagan's classroom raised $686

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

Help me give my students the basic materials necessary to work on their subjects and reinforcement activities during the upcoming school year. Ninety-five percent of my students are low income and a significant percentage of my class has special needs.

Most of these materials will help parents avoid the financial burden that comes at the beginning of the year.

I am sure that my students will make the most of all of the materials, and their faces will shine with happiness knowing that they will have everything they need to start their school year with great enthusiasm.
