Start School with the Basics

Help me give my students basic school supplies to start the new school year!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Wilson's classroom raised $224

My Project

My students arrive eager and ready to learn; however, many families struggle to get the necessary supplies needed to start the year off great. My goal is that all scholars have what they need so they don't feel concerned about not being prepared for school.

Please help make my students smile with supplies they need for a successful start to the year.

Folders will help them organize their work and pencil cases will be packed with pencils, dry erase markers, erasers, and other items to start the year with the materials they need every day.
