My Project

Empower our classroom with the tools for discovery! Support our Donors Choose project to provide essential science supplies like modeling clay and electronic scales.

With these resources, students can engage in hands-on projects, fostering creativity and a deeper understanding of scientific concepts.

Modeling clay allows for 3D model building, electronic scales enable precise measurements, and colored pencils enhance visual representation. Your contribution will directly impact students' learning experiences, promoting a love for science through tangible exploration. Join us in cultivating a dynamic and interactive learning environment, where every student has the opportunity to unleash their scientific curiosity. Together, let's inspire the next generation of innovators!
