My Students

Our school is made up of a diverse population of amazing young human beings. These students are resilient and continue to make gains and progress both socially and emotionally even when faced with barriers. Many of these amazing humans walk into our doors requesting support with basic needs.

My Project

Students come into our building often with the need for basic hygiene products. We are seeking help to ensure all students at Verona Elementary always have access to the very simple basic essential to improve self esteem and remove this barrier to learning and building relationships with peers. In this project, you will see deodorant, toothbrush and toothpaste. In this 3rd through 5th grade school building it is imperative that we provide these simple things so that we can remove barriers to learning along with peers and finding daily success. Thank you!!
