New Year, New Supplies!

Help me give my students basic supplies to start their year off with everything they need to be successful!

My Project

I am looking to provide enough pencils, post-its, highlighters and other supplies my students need to be able to start their year off with everything they may need! The laminator will allow me to preserve their work and create projects that will engage my students! Most of my students do not come to school with the supplies they need. This project will ensure that every student passing through my door will have what they need to start their school year off right.

Nelson Mandela said, "It is not beyond our power to create a world in which all children have access to a good education." This project allows me a small space to create that world for my students.
