My Project

Hello amazing families and friends!

Our young Black Hawks are ready to spread their creative wings—but we need your help to make sure they can fly high this year in art class!

From the tiniest kindergarten hands to our confident middle school creators, every student in our K–8 school deserves access to the supplies that help them express themselves. Right now, our art room is in need of some basic essentials—things like markers, crayons, colored pencils, paper, glue sticks, paint, and brushes. These are the building blocks of imagination and expression!

Imagine a classroom where every Black Hawk has the tools to create boldly, think critically, and let their imaginations soar. With your support, we can restock our shelves and give every student a chance to thrive through art.

Your donation helps us provide:

*Colorful materials for drawing, painting, and sculpting

*Paper and tools for all types of projects, big and small

*A space where creativity is celebrated and every child feels like an artist

Let’s fuel their passion and help their ideas take flight. With your help, our art room can become a launchpad for creativity!

Thank you for supporting our Blackhawk artists—we can’t wait to see how high they’ll soar with your help!

With gratitude,

Mrs. Priniski

Art Teacher, Proud Blackhawk

And remember, it's a great day to be a Blackhawk!

Mrs. Priniski will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by Sunday, December 21.
