STEM-Ready Spaces: Restock & Reorganize for Innovation

Help me give my students an organized space and refreshed materials so that we can hit the ground running at the beginning of the new school year in our STEM classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. McGouldrick's classroom raised $623

My Project

In our STEM classroom, students have the opportunity to explore and create using hands-on tools like micro:bits, Makey Makey kits, and other engaging technology. These kits are full of small, important pieces that require careful organization and maintenance in order to keep them usable year after year.

With limited time, students only attend STEM class once a week—organization is essential.

When tools are easy to find, properly stored, and ready to go, we can maximize every minute of learning and creation. Disorganized or incomplete kits slow us down and take valuable time away from students’ exploration and innovation.

After several years of extensive use, many of our supplies now need to be replaced or refreshed. Batteries have worn out, essential components are missing, and storage containers are no longer effective. With your help, we can restock these materials and set up a thoughtful organization system that keeps our kits complete, accessible, and classroom-ready.

Your support will ensure that our students begin the new school year with a well-equipped and functional STEM space, ready for them to build, code, invent, and discover.
