My Project

My upcoming first graders are diverse, joyful, and a talented group of children. These curious investigators deserve the hands on tools to thrive. These learning materials will help make our learning environment welcoming, structured, and engaging. My first grade students are eager to learn but they need the right tools to stay organized, focused, and emotionally supported throughout the school day. This project will provide essential classroom supplies, such as: seat sacks to help keep material organized, along with basic supplies to support daily learning activities. In addition, social-emotional resources will help students build important skills, like understanding their feelings, developing positive relationships and managing challenges.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
