My Project

Our school was recently struck by the tornado that hit St. Louis, MO. Because of the storm, we had to end the school year abruptly. These supplies will help me get my new temporary classroom at our temporary school. Last year, I wasn’t able to provide my students with snacks, and this is something I would hope to do this year. These students have been through so much last year, and I just want to give them a school year they won’t forget. These are just some things to get us started.
