My Project

I work in a Title I school where my students don't have access to supplies or books at home. I want to provide them with as much comfort and familiarity at this time as I can.

My students are bright and inquisitive.

They love learning and are excited about new projects. I would love to be able to fund gift cards as incentives to my students who are working so hard this year. I am proud of what they have accomplished and I want them to know that. I asked my 5th graders and they choose Starbucks as a reward. The gift cards will be a special reward for good behavior, attendance, and hard work!
