My Project

I work in a Title I school where supplying students with materials lessens their load so they can just show up to my class to learn! My classroom is a safe space in which I strive to meet the needs of every learner, and a supportive environment to learn. We are requesting paper, markers and flexible seating. Any donation would help me revamp my classroom and help create a positive learning space. I know that if I have what my students need their level of learning increases, and they won't stress about having to show up with supplies they may not have access to.
