My Project

Thank you for considering a donation to my project to provide some supplies to make my school year run smoothly! I realized last year the students needed an extra charging outlet for all their computers towards the end of the day. In our older school, we don't have many outlets located throughout the room, so an extension power strip is necessary. I would also like to have bright paper for important copies that are easily located by the students in their backpacks. Of course, tissues are always needed.

Being able to provided an extension cord, more tissues and bright computer paper were all "misses" last year on my list.

Every year I evolve as a teacher and make notes to myself about what I can get, do or learn to become a better teacher the next year. Thank you for considering my project!
