FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Shameka McArthur's classroom raised $305

My Project

As the school year begins to wind down, my Kindergarten scholars are running low on their supplies. These supplies are vital to us finishing our school year off strong.

We need some crayons to color our activities, the brilliant pictures that we draw and create to add life to our writing.

We also need pencils and erasers to write our thoughts, complete our work, and erasers to fix our mistakes.

My scholars also need paper to write on, draw, and unleash our artistic abilities for our educational endeavors and projects.

It has been a blessing to have the supplies we need throughout the year. Please help us finish the year off strong.
