Organized Minds, Ready to Shine: Take-Home Folders for Student Success

Help me give my students take home folders to stay organized, responsible, and connected to home with a simple but powerful take-home folder system!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Allison Lee's classroom raised $263

This project is fully funded

My Project

Many of my students don’t have access to basic organizational tools at home. With your support, they’ll develop lifelong skills like responsibility, communication, and time management. Plus they’ll feel more confident in and out of the classroom.

Your donation will go directly toward materials each child will use daily.

Together, we can set them up for success, academically and personally, for the entire school year.

To support this, I’m creating a folder system that helps students track their homework and important dates, communicate with families, and keep classwork and supplies organized. Students will feel ownership and pride in their progress.
