Safe Solar Eclipse Viewing Event

Help me give my students an amazing opportunity to go and view the 2024 solar eclipse safely with Solar Eclipse glasses.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Tatro's classroom raised $514

This project is fully funded

My Project

We are looking for funding for 300 solar eclipse viewing glasses to view the April 2024 Solar Eclipse. Students will get this opportunity in North America on rare occasions such as the eclipse on April 8, 2024.

I am excited to educate the students on the science behind the eclipse and end with a viewing event.

We will be working on learning how eclipses take place, the frequency of their occurrence and how location impacts what type of eclipse they will be observing.

Our students will be able to view this eclipse during the school day. The actual real life experience will be amazing and unforgettable.
