Mr. Barnes from Morgan Hill CA is requesting art supplies through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Picture Frames and paper to show off my students' work!

Help me give my students picture frames and presentation materials. Every book needs a good cover, every picture needs a good frame!

My Students

My community is multicultural, much like the rest of the Silicone Valley.

My students are mainly high school juniors and seniors in a small community half an hour south of San Jose, CA.

The community is part small town/semi-rural/agricultural and part bedroom suburb.

My students are are a diverse bunch, reflecting the rich variety of cultures found in the the SF Bay Area.

I always need funding for display materials to visually represent my students and their work.

I hope to fund purchases of frames and paper.

My Project

Visual artists know that the key to dazzling the public is how your work is presented! My CTE Photography students were working on studio lighting until the Big Q came along. Now they are creating work online and I am printing it.

We want to show off our work by creating 8x10" inkjet prints with window matts and 11x 14" frames, so I am requesting frames.

While frames are easily ordered through the mail, these kit frames are durable and practical. It's more economical to order them without glass.
