Less Worry, More Teaching (Supplies, Organization, and Togetherness)

Help me give my students resources for educators to prepare for activities, lessons, and organization. This is one less thing for us to worry about - and to focus on the instruction and learning!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Vu's classroom raised $1,079

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Thank you for your support in getting resources for educators to prepare for activities, lessons, and organization for students. This is one less thing for us to worry about --- and to focus on the instruction and learning!

The items in this project include basic supplies such as: laminators, pencils, pens, Sharpie markers, electric staplers, labels, and other organizational tools!

These are items that we need daily that go through maximum usage and wear and tear.

Have you ever made copies to only realize the stapler function is broken? Have you ever made incredible colored anchor charts or visuals, but had no way to preserve them by laminating them, for future use?

Items in this project will solve some of these issues. These items will go into shared teacher spaces for all to use.

Thank you for your time and consideration in supporting our school community!

Mrs. Vu Academy at Kiley Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
