Just the Basics

Help me give my students basic school material (pencils, notebooks, markers, and such) to help them be successful in 6th grade math and science.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. DeJan's classroom raised $393

My Project

My 6th grade students (approximately 180 of them) will benefit from additional basic classroom supplies that will allow them to be successful in the areas of math and science. Organization is one key component to helping students grow and learn, and access to these supplies will support them as they strengthen these skills.

We use a notebook in both areas to hold our notes and work in math and our notes and labs in science.

Pencils and white board markers are used daily and we are always in need of more!
