Mrs. Sutton from Ecru MS is requesting reading nooks, desks & storage through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Room With No Closet

Help me give my students a nice classroom environment by supplying cabinets in a room with no closet. I need storage space to house all of the classroom copies of novels as well as other books and supplies.

My Students

I teach teenagers in a rural Mississippi community. Our demographics range from blue collar traditional American families to immigrants of Hispanic and Middle-Eastern descent who are learning to speak and read English for the first time. Their worlds blend together in this small town in the county, and budget restraints often hinder the selection of resources we have available. Many of these students are not able to secure school supplies on their own, and our town has a limited number of businesses for tax revenue to help.

The students in my classroom vary in interests, learning abilities, and cultures; and are gifted, English Language Learners, and students who experience learning challenges.

Your donations will reach all students.

My Project

I have been working on a classroom that will be a welcoming environment for students to feel relaxed and ready to learn. My classroom does not have a closet, and I am trying to make a nice area to house all of our classroom novels, other books, and supplies.

These cabinets will be placed in the back corner of my classroom to create a closet-like area to put cluttered boxes and supplies.

I feel that an organized classroom helps students better organize their thoughts and feel relaxed and calm. They will be focused on learning instead of looking at the clutter.
