My Project
We have hit the end of quarter 2 in first grade! Our school is running low on extra underwear and pants for primary grade students and our primary team is trying to build back our "classroom closets". Classroom closets include pants and underpants that will fit our 5-8 year old students.
All of our students eat breakfast and lunch at school!
As a result, they often spill milk or food on their clothing. These accidents, in addition to bathroom accidents, lead our students to need replacement clothing. Some of our students keep a spare pair of their own clothing at school for when accidents happen. But not all of our students have extra clean clothes. Providing them with clean clothes, no questions asks, reduces their shame and gets them back to learning much more quickly.
Our students eat breakfast in our classrooms every day. In addition to the previous mentioned messes their often make on their clothing, messes are often made on their desks, chair, and the floor. Each class goes through an average of 28 sanitizing wipes a day. This project will help us have enough wipes to get us through to spring break.
Since we are halfway through the school year, our students' pencils have gotten to the ends of their lifespan and need to be replaced. This project will also provide them with fresh pencils!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
