My Project
My second graders are curious, creative, and full of potential. They come from diverse backgrounds and show up every day eager to learn and support each other. In our classroom—“The Hive”—we celebrate every success and encourage each other to grow.
I want to create an engaging, supportive space where students build strong writing skills and explore social studies through hands-on learning.
This project will provide tools to help students focus, collaborate, and express themselves confidently.
The materials I’ve requested—flexible seating, writing tools, and social studies resources—will improve focus, creativity, and connection to the world. Your donation helps build a classroom where every child feels valued and inspired to learn.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
