My Project

Our students are in need of lots of tools in order to be able to help them grow and to reduce economical gaps in learning. Some students come with no school supplies and some come with not enough to last the whole school year. I am asking for simple school supplies such as markers, pencils and glue. As well as headphones needed for testing. Our school is located in a high needs area and any help can help my students achieve greatness this next school year.

My goal is to get these supplies to help us make it through the year as well as make the calm down corner a place where students can relax and destress and help their bodies calm down.

I also want to have my students use actual headphones for reading and testing. Testing is hard with tiny earbuds and these headphones would help all of my students do the very best they can on all of the very important tests in 3rd grade.
