My Project

I'm reaching out for support in gathering materials to help my Transitional Kindergarten (TK) students create their end-of-year memory books — a special project filled with their art, writing, and favorite moments from the year.

We are in need of the following supplies:

A book binding machine

Playdough, markers, glue

Craft supplies to decorate their memory books

These items will also be used during our Play Day and Spirit Week celebrations. Unfortunately, our classroom funds have run out, and we need a little help to make these projects possible.

If you're able to donate any of these materials — or contribute toward them — it would mean so much to our students. Your generosity will help us wrap up the school year with joy, creativity, and memories that will last a lifetime.

Thank you for supporting our TK classroom!
