My Students

Hello! My students are on the outskirts of Chattanooga, TN. The school is a Title I-funded school with a large diversity of students. The students in the school come from a variety of different backgrounds, and are all unique.

My goal is for all students, regardless of differences, to have their needs met, feel welcomed, and have the best opportunities for learning.

My Project

The materials I am in need of are basic materials for the classroom.

I have a low-income class who does not have the supplies needed to help complete their classwork or packets at home.

Scissors, glue, pencils, and crayons have all been sent home with the kiddos to complete their practice work/packets when they are not at school. Unfortunately, not all the supplies made it back to the classroom to use for class work. These basic supplies will be at the student's fingertips to help eliminate wasted time looking for supplies, or waiting to share These supplies will be used on a daily basis. Thank you for you donation! We are extremely grateful.
