In Need of School Uniforms!

Help me give my students school uniforms to perform at their highest abilities!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Perrett's classroom raised $890

My Project

The 5th grade students are in need of uniforms! We are a uniform school, and some families are unable to provide this for their student. Throughout the school year, students outgrow their original uniform given at the beginning of the year. A uniform school helps students start the day at an even playing field. This pushes a more equitable environment for students to learn in. When there is a more equitable environment for students to learn in, the focus of the day is LEARNING and not what children are wearing. It is proven through research, dressing nice during the school day, students are more focused on the learning at hand, and it is easier to stay focus and on task. My goal is to provide uniforms for students who show up to school consistently out of uniform.
