My Students

Do you remember the excitement that you had on your first day of school? Going with your parents to purchase all of your supplies.

My students are in 8th grade.

They are all disadvantaged and often come to school unprepared for a productive day. My students come from a low socioeconomic status. Many times they come to school upset because they know they have come unprepared. They become frustrated because they know they grades will suffer and their future is affected.

My Project

My students need supplies to start the school year off right. They need notebooks, writing utensils, and project supplies to have the necessary materials to do well. Your donation will provide the students with the necessary supplies to have successful school year. My students will have the necessary supplies to take notes, complete assignments and homework. Their grades will increase as they have the opportunity to complete their work. They no longer have to miss assignments due to the lack of supplies.

Please help my students be successful.

This is your opportunity to set my students up for success. This will enable them to be prepared for school. Your help will set my students up for a successful school year.
