Refreshed School Supplies for a Fresh Year

Help me give my students the school supplies they need for a successful third grade year!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Emerson's classroom raised $619

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am a 3rd grade teacher and I have the pleasure of teaching a diverse group of students every school year coming from all socioeconomic statuses. I am excited for my new bunch of students that will enter my class in August. I can't wait to see them learn and grow in my classroom.

Having the right school supplies will give my students the best opportunity to be successful in their third-grade year.

It is essential for students to have materials to help them learn effectively. Each item requested will be used in the classroom to benefit our students’ learning.
