Starting the Year Strong

Help me give my students essential materials to start the new school year

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pereira's classroom raised $272

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

With the start of a new school year, there also comes the need for some materials. With these supplies, my goal is for my students to arrive at school eager to learn, despite the challenges they may face outside the classroom. Every resource I have requested has been chosen to meet their needs and help them thrive. Kleenex will help us maintain a clean and welcoming classroom environment.

Although academics are extremely important, their social and emotional needs are equally crucial.

After a long day of learning, I want my students to be able to relax and interact with their friends in recess.

The incentives will help motivate students to follow classroom and behavioral expectations, helping build a stronger sense of community and belonging in our classroom.
