Mrs. Aldin from Waimea HI is requesting reading nooks, desks & storage through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Shoes, Socks & Storage for Science

Help me give my students the supplies needed to do lab safely. Also, ensure that chemicals have a proper storage place and stored in a safe place.

My Project

Closed-toed shoes and socks are major important school supplies that every student should wear before doing chemistry related high school lab experiences. Overtime, I have come to realize that the students I service need those items provided to them at school. And that students who live in Hawaii don't really own closed toed shoes or they just forget that it's a lab day. Having a set of shoes and socks for students to borrow, allows students the opportunity to practice and learn new skills that they would only get in a science lab setting. Storing chemicals in an organized, neat and spacious fashion is key to keeping them safe.
