My Project

It is halfway through the year and we have run low on the essential supplies we need to help keep us learning and safe. This cold season has left many students homesick and out of the classroom. By utilizing disinfecting wipes throughout the day we can decrease the spread of harmful germs and illnesses. We are also running low on the basic supplies we need to learn in the classroom. Supplies like pencils and markers are necessary for the success of these first-grade students. Please help us finish this year off right!
