Mid-Year Supply Rush

My students need a restock of supplies and testing privacy boards.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sossong's classroom raised $312

This project is fully funded

My Students

I have the opportunity to be a part of a wonderfully large school! We have over 1,000 students in the entire school from all backgrounds, cultures, and beliefs!

We are a Title I school with a rich STEAM department and innovative projects to engage students from all cultural backgrounds.

Our school is focused on finding new and creative ways to teach standards so students will remember the information for years to come and will be able to use everything they learn with us.

My Project

We were extremely fortunate to have had so many wonderful supply donations from our parents at the beginning of the year!

Unfortunately, those supplies can only last so long with 26 fifth graders.

Between testing, activities, text analysis, and so much more, we are running low on pencils, notebooks, and highlighters! Since we are a Title I school, many of our students come from homes where it may be difficult to get these supplies. To help out, our school tries to ask for as many donations as possible!

We also need colored paper for our reading groups and word study, containers for supply storage and organization, and privacy boards for desks for when students are testing!
