My Project

Get ready for that "fresh start" energy! Our Saber students are buzzing for a new school year, eager to unleash their curiosity and brilliance. But before the real magic happens, we often hit a snag: the missing essentials. Here at our school, many eager learners arrive without basic supplies, and dedicated teachers like us regularly dip into our own wallets to fill the gaps.

This year, let's script a blockbuster school year together!

Your generous support can equip our classroom with the absolute must-haves: tissues (because inspiration and sniffles wait for no one!), reams of paper and trusty pencils (the fuel for bright ideas!), vibrant colored pencils to bring concepts to life, bold dry erase markers for our collaborative brain-dumps, and the all-important hand sanitizer and cleaning supplies to keep our learning environment healthy and focused. In true scientific fashion, students need notebooks to record and analyze their data. Listing composition books in the cart helps support the students who might not be able get a notebook in a timely manner - if teachers have a few notebooks in reserve, it can make a huge difference in a student’s classroom experience.

Why is your contribution such a game-changer? Every donation means fewer teachers spending their own money on these crucial items. This directly allows us to channel our limited school resources towards more exciting, hands-on lab supplies and engaging materials – the very things that spark true passion and help shape our future innovators and dreamers. By helping us secure these fundamentals, you’re not just providing supplies; you’re investing in a fresh, equitable start for every student and empowering us to build a classroom where big ideas can truly take flight. Let's give our Saber students the tools they need to thrive and explore the world of science.
