My Project

I love teaching Prek! I love that my students use their creativity everyday in our Art Center to help them learn and grow. The art collage materials will allow my students an extension on what they can create. The glue sticks are an essential part of the Art Center because my students love decorating their papers with collage materials, popsicle sticks, beads and more! With your donations I will be able to provide my students with fun and creative ideas that will engage them all year! Thank you so much!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
