Ms. Howard from Garden Grove CA is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

New School Year Refresh!

Help me give my students a warm and welcoming classroom environment that makes them feel safe and ready to learn. Evidence shows that in a comfortable classroom environment, students are more likely to challenge themselves.

My Project

This decor for my classroom will make my students feel safe, welcomed, and included. I plan on using these materials to make an inviting space where students are encouraged to challenge themselves and build community with their peers.

Students are more likely to learn in a space where they feel comfortable and safe and that is my goal with these classroom decorations.

My classroom is a safe space and all are welcome here.

Please help me refresh my classroom for the upcoming school year! Your generosity does not go unnoticed! Thank you!

Ms. Howard
Grades 9-12
