Help me give my students and teachers the classroom supplies they need to re-open our school.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Manger's classroom raised $610
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Our school is dedicated to teaching everyone through project-based learning as a social justice educational tool. We are a progressive, public, charter school devoted to teaching every child the skills and concepts they need to be successful in our ever-changing world.
We have created engaging, interactive online learning but cannot replicate the materials and books we have in the classroom.
We serve a large Mexican American population as well as a diverse socioeconomic group of families in the North County San Diego area. Our students love to build and have a natural curiosity about the world around them. With a project-based learning approach, we attempt to build an engaging classroom, rich with materials and access to real tools and resources. This has been challenging in a distance learning program.
We do not receive as much funding as local public schools and do not burden our parents with expenses; therefore, we are responsible for our own classroom materials. Now we face a real challenge with our school buildings re-opening after being closed for so long.
My Project
Our school has been working so hard to provide a rich online learning experience, and finally we are opening our classrooms for in-person learning. Lots of our resources have been sent home to help students, especially for those families that cannot afford to pay for supplies.
Now that we are re-opening, we need basic school supplies to provide a rich in-person learning experience, including pencils, paper, markers, paint, and glue.
This will allow us to get our students back to school and return joy to the classroom.
Half of students from low‑income households
