New Year New Classroom

Help me give my students supplies for a new classroom next school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Toumi's classroom raised $603

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our 6th grade students are always so excited and also so hesitant to start the new school year. This year our school is under construction and we will all be moving to temporary classrooms.

Fresh new supplies make a classroom feel like a welcoming place to learn.

I would like to give my students all new pencil pouches filled with new markers, colored pencils, erasers and science supplies to give them the feeling that they are special, loved and taken care of at school.

We place a lot of emphasis on taking care of our supplies and having new things helps to foster a sense of pride in our work.
