Keep Student Data Confidential

Help me give my students Hello! I'm in need of a small filing cabinet to keep my necessary documents for students (confidential information, test answer keys, etc) safe, as well as some manilla folders.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ogle's classroom raised $196

My Project

Hello! I’m reaching out to request a small filing cabinet and a supply of manila folders to help me store important student materials in a secure and organized way. These materials include confidential documents, test and quiz answer keys, completed projects, and other sensitive information that needs to be kept private and protected.

Student confidentiality is something I take very seriously, and having a lockable filing cabinet would greatly support my efforts to maintain a safe, professional, and organized learning environment.

It would also help streamline my day-to-day work by providing an accessible and secure place to store key classroom materials.

Thank you so much for considering this request—I truly appreciate your support in helping me create an efficient and responsible classroom space!
