My Project

We recently started a school post office where staff and students can send letters to each other every week. Our 4th-grade students run the school post office by sorting, stamping, and delivering mail.

I would love to give our students the opportunity to use a post office hat, vest, and bag to use to deliver mail, as well as some festive stamps to use during different seasons.

Our staff and students enjoy receiving letters on Fridays. I believe adding uniforms will make this experience even better for our 4th graders and the rest of the school!
