Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

At ECS we have the most amazing students and families. Our students are creative and eager to learn! With your help, we can ensure that each child will have the necessary supplies and tools to succeed and enhance their learning. Each child will be given the necessary school supplies to help make their year the best. By providing each student with their school supplies they can focus on their academics and know that they have everything needed to be successful. Math and ELA manipulatives will also help the students show their thinking and creativity! We appreciate everyone's kindness and generosity! Thank you!
