New Year: Fueling Minds After School and Beyond

Help me give my students engaging books for our after-school club, interactive notebooks to support hands-on learning, and essential classroom supplies and decor to kick off the new school year with joy and confidence.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Woodson's classroom raised $1,018

This project is fully funded

My Project

This project will support an after-school book club that encourages reading, builds community, and deepens comprehension through discussion.

My students are curious, creative, and eager to learn.

To support their learning, I’m also requesting interactive notebooks where students can reflect, explore, and organize their ideas while in ELA.

Additionally, classroom supplies and decor will help create a vibrant, functional, and welcoming space that sparks joy and readiness to learn each day. These resources will support students academically and emotionally as we head into a new school year full of potential.

Your support will help us begin the year strong with the materials, mindset, and motivation to grow.
