Starting School in the Upper West Side

Help me give my students the necessities and even more for fruitful education!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Garcia's classroom raised $427

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Help a 4th Grade Dual Language Class in the Upper West Side get off to a great start! The items requested will be utilized to provide each student (24 in total) with sufficient notebooks to engage with the Reading, Writing, Math, and Social Studies content. As with any classroom, a healthy supply of pencils and a sharpener never hurts! The students specifically requested a shelf to place their lunches, and I am in no position to deny such a wonderful idea! Starting off the school year can be tough, but we'll be off to a great start when this bundle is funded!
