For the past two years, donors like you have helped supply my students with individual recess bags. They have been an absolute hit! Students love having their own personal kit for breaks inside the classroom, for indoor recess, and even to take outside for recess.
These bags will give each child their own set of crayons, markers, and colored pencils.
They will have a drawing notebook, sidewalk chalk, playdough with toys, and bag to keep it all in!
Students can use these supplies in class when we do creative projects or on their own time to spark their own creative ideas. Many students love to play with the playdough with their friends, or teach others how to draw.
All of these supplies are costly and are not a mandatory school supply as they aren't needed to complete paper and pencil work, but student always need and deserve time to be themselves, get a break, and be creative. Helping fund this project will give each student just that!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
