Promoting Academic Success by Addressing Social & Emotional Needs!
Help me give my students the basic essentials to come to school ready to be successful! These items will help students focus on learning instead of what they lack!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sigler's classroom raised $699

My Project
My ultimate goal is to promote a positive learning environment for each of my students. At times, this can be a challenge due to the growing pains of kids becoming teenagers, things that happen outside of the classroom, the school, or even at home. Sometimes, the school is a student’s safe space, and I want to help my students as much as possible while they are at school.
As a teacher, I have the responsibility to meet the needs of my students academically, socially, and emotionally.
If the social and emotional needs of the student are met, it makes the academic needs much more attainable. If funded, this project will give my students access to personal hygiene items (toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, hair needs), especially if they are not available at home. This will be one less issue they have to worry about. If my student needs a snack to help them focus or hold them over until lunch, the snacks on this list will help them hold on a while longer until lunchtime.
Lastly, if a student needs help focusing or controlling their emotions, the fidgets will provide an outlet for self-regulation and encourage positive behavior choices. The items on this list won’t end world hunger, but it will definitely encourage my students and help them reach their goals, wether they are social, emotional, or academic.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
