School Year 25/26 8th Grade Supply Support

Help me give my students classroom supplies to start strong in the new school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Nelson's classroom raised $1,395

This project is fully funded

My Project

Hello! The 8th grade teachers in our school are seeking support to provide essential classroom supplies for our entire team for students in the new school year. These materials will be shared across all subject areas to benefit every 8th grader in our school. Your generosity will help create a more supportive and engaging learning environment for our students.

Some of the many exciting projects these resources will support are National History Day projects, science fair, and other interdisciplinary projects.

With changes to our school, district, and nationwide education budgets, we are relying on the generosity of others to care for our next generation. Our students deserve the best, and we need support to give them that. Thank you for considering a donation to help our kids thrive!

Ms. Nelson James McHenry Elementary Middle School 10 Grades 6-8

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