FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Pendergrass-Weston's classroom raised $461

This project is fully funded

My Students

There are 21 students in my kindergarten class. Our school is one of the smaller schools in the district; therefore we do not get as much money as the larger schools. The school that I teach at is a community school. This is my first year teaching kindergarten and I have so much that I want to teach these little minds. With the help of our wonderful donors, my job will be so much easier. Please help us in our new school year!

My Project

The students will be given more variety at an early age to explore things they are interested in. These interests may spark lifelong interests and can lead to successful jobs or careers in the future. The students will be able to run a restaurant that entails cooking like a chef, being a waitress, or customer at the restaurant. At the store, they can be a cashier, stocker, or a shopper. They will be able to experience adult situations on a child-like scale. The students will enjoy playing in these roles as they are also learning!
