Help me give my students basic stationery, office supplies, a printer, and comfortable seating.

My students are the epitome of triumph and resilience. With poverty and gun violence plaguing our community, students still enter the building every day eager to learn and willing to make a positive impact on our school. Students ask many questions about math and science and draw real-world connections to their life experiences.
I want to continue to foster their inquisitiveness and excitement by allowing them to work collaboratively to solve performance tasks.
Performance tasks increase the rigor of our classroom by allowing students to think critically and creatively, work collaboratively, and communicate effectively.
In the last two years, my school has managed to make some sustainable changes resulting in increased student achievement in both reading and mathematics.
Entering this school year, students at my school deserve a strong start.
Teachers want to be able to provide students with everything they need, including paper, pencils, and highlighters. We want to make anchor charts with poster paper and markers so that students can refer back to previously learned concepts. In addition, we would like to be able to make copies so students can take home standards-aligned work to continue learning at home. Finally, we would like to have a relaxing space for students to learn freely. We believe this will optimize student comfort in the classroom by letting them know they have options on where to learn if they are upset or need to be alone. Our students deserve the best, and, with your help, we can give it to them!
