My Students

We need your help to continue on with our creative education and project-based learning activities. Most of the students who attend our school come from low-income homes, foster homes, or group homes.

We also have a large number of special education students, so hands-on materials are very important for our students' growth.

They learn best with hands-on materials and experiences which can be difficult because materials cost money. Our school relies on finding funds from wonderful people to help us purchase the supplies needed in our classrooms.

My Project

My students love learning and making all kinds of art. Art is such an amazing way to teach students to be colorful and creative in any classroom. It is impossible to teach my students successfully when they can't purchase the materials they need because the majority of my students are from low-income homes.

I would love to give every one of my students the chance to use various styles of markers in the art classroom.

We have been talking a lot about various lines artists use in art. My students have been very excited to explore my personal set of double-sided markers and we are ready to have a classroom set for the art room.

I have some amazing drawing lessons ready for my students to do but I just need help purchasing the supplies.
