Reaching Our Highest Potential

Help me give my students manipulative’s and supplies to boost their academic and social emotional learning!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Eiler's classroom raised $507

This project is fully funded

My Project

My amazing students come to school excited and eager to learn everyday. Since they are participating in a special education program and also located in a low income area they have unique needs and challenges.

The literacy and math manipulative’s, social emotional books, flexible seating, snacks, and basic classroom supply needs will help each student to be able to meet their basic needs so they are then able to excel to a higher level on their educational path.

The students push themselves everyday to achieve more on their educational journey and just need a few more resources to give them a boost in areas of need.
