Help me give my students supplies to start the new year off right!

Mrs. Johnson Northeast Elementary School

Kinston, NC Grades PreK-2

My Project

A new school year brings excitement, fresh opportunities, and eager second graders who are ready to learn. To help my students have a successful start, I am requesting the basic classroom supplies that we use every single day. From crayons, pencils, glue sticks, and printer paper to chart paper, sentence strips, Post-it Notes, homework folders, grading pens, and staples, these everyday essentials are the foundation of meaningful learning.

Having enough supplies for every student will ensure every child is ready to learn from day one.

These materials will allow students to create, write, collaborate, and explore new concepts throughout the year without worrying about running out of essential classroom tools. A plush rocket, our school mascot, will add a fun and welcoming touch to our classroom while building school spirit and excitement for learning.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
