Math Night for Our School

Help me give my students math materials for our school wide math night.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Valera-Sherman's classroom raised $168

This project is fully funded

My Project

Help give our Title I, low income students math materials to continue building on their math skills at home. At our math night, families will learn how to build and support their students in various math strands using common materials (dice, card decks, fraction bars, etc.) that are purchased through your donation and handed out that evening.

Currently many of our students are performing 2-3 grade levels below in mathematics.

Hosting these family nights allows us to integrate our bilingual services, after-school program, and schoolwide team to support all of our families, many of which are monolingual or bilingual.
