My Project

Help spark a love for science, tech, engineering, art, and math in our kindergarten classroom! We're asking for donations to bring hands-on STEAM experiences to our youngest learners. With your support, our kids will get to build, create, and discover every day. This project directly helps my classroom to get the tools needed for making deeper connections and differentiating learning. My goal is to have enough classroom supplies for my entire classroom for the school year.

Let's build a future full of inventors and creators- starting now!

My goal is to have enough supplies for my entire class for the school year.
