Mrs. Rachel Smith from Providence RI is requesting flexible seating through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Please Help Inner City Students Stay Organized!

Help me give my students the basic materials they need to stay organized and thrive in the classroom. The desks the students currently have do not have any storage.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

My students are amazing multilingual learners who amaze me daily. They are hardworking, kind, and motivated to be successful now and in the future. My students deserve a classroom with resources and materials to work towards their potential. Thank you!

My Project

I am requesting seat pockets and clip boards. My students are amazing young people. They work hard everyday but need help with materials to stay organized and on task. The desks the students currently have do not have any storage. Their materials are in bags that are falling apart. This takes away from instructional time. These students deserve their own items that can store their learning materials to make transitioning fast and effortless. Please consider helping these wonderful kids. It would mean a lot to them and I know it would have a positive impact in their classroom.
