School Supplies for Middle School Scholars

Help me give my students the school supplies they need for a productive learning experience.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lacey's classroom raised $361

My Project

As a middle school teacher, I love working with students and giving them the skills that they will need moving forward to high school. The students that I work with are eager to learn, but most of the time are lacking the basic tools to get them through their shool day.

Not having a pencil, pen, or a piece of paper should not stand in the way of daily learning tasks.

By having the necessary tools to complete their work, my students can focus on the task at hand and be successful.

Ms. Lacey Reavis Math & Science Elementary School Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
