Help me give my students the items they need to become successful in school.

My Project

My students are amazing individuals! Many of whom have overcome amazing obstacles. They need to have the ability to keep their school papers organized and together. They should have the tools to help them track words as they are reading, so they have the ability to comprehend the information. I want to help them be successful in school. I want school to be a safe place where they can focus on learning to better themselves.

My students work tirelessly to be successful in their lives; overcoming the challenges that they have.

They should not have to worry about having a pencil or paper to take notes. The materials I am requesting will be kept in my room so that my students can take what they need to be successful in school.
