Help me give my students everything they need to have a great start to the school year. Each year students and teachers need a few things to make learning and teaching happen.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. O.'s classroom raised $921

My Project

A new school year begins and our scholars are excited to show their skills. These materials such as books, markers, scissors, and construction paper will allow students to showcase their ideas in the most imaginative ways possible.

Our scholars are smart, creative, and crafty.

In order for their skill to shine bright they need the right tools and materials.

With these materials, I can create a warm and welcoming environment in which students have access to what they need to express themselves. There are so many ways that kids can represent their thinking and with your generous donations, our scholars will have the opportunity to do just that!
