Startup Supplies for a Successful Year

Help me give my students a great start to the year with these classroom supplies (folders, power strips, fidget toys, etc.)!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. H.'s classroom raised $492

My Project

My students are so excited to start this year with a couple of large performances to prepare for. These basic classroom supplies (folders, power strip, fidget toys, etc.) will help us to get off to a great start by giving us the tools we need to begin working immediately. Families in my community continue to feel the financial pinch of the past few years, and this will reduce the back-to-school burden for them.

Our choir program is so grateful for the continued support we receive from the Donors Choose community.

My students love to walk around the room and acknowledge the donations we have received.
