My students need scissors, glue sticks, headphones, pencils, and the pencil sharpener to replace broken items. We need the book boxes, organizers, and pocket chart to promote organization.
I teach 22 students in a low-income school in Detroit. But you would think I teach in the richest school with how my children behave. My students strive for greatness daily, and don't let their surroundings bring them down.
My children come to school every day ready to learn.
They are active kindergartners who strive to be great. They love to read, write and play. They have come very far this school year. I can't wait to see what happens between now and the end of the year!
My Project
My students will be using the caddies and book boxes to help keep their books and supplies organized. This will help them gain confidence and become more independent need the scissors, glue sticks, pencils, headphones, and pencil sharpener to replace items that have broken. My children love to write and write every day.
My school is under supplied school in Detroit.
Most families can't afford the school uniform, let alone crayons, pencils, and paper. By funding this project you will be providing much needed supplies we need to finish off the school year. You will also be helping to teach the children about organization, and keeping all of their supplies in one area.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
