STEM Supplies Make Students Thrive!

Help me give my students in high school STEM supplies so they can thrive!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Shanice's classroom raised $994

This project is fully funded

My Project

As the only STEM high school in Boston, naturally our students are curious, motivated, and eager to engage in hands-on learning experiences. With your help, my students can take their learning to the next level and develop important skills that will help them succeed in STEM.

With STEM being celebrated in across disciplines, students will be exposed to more information about science, technology, engineering, and math to ignite their curiosity and help them build the skills needed for future careers in STEM fields.

With these books, supplies, and materials, students will be able to learn about pioneers who paved the path before them, whilst gaining real-world skills and a deeper understanding of STEM concepts. We are also requesting a few everyday basics like tissues and disinfecting materials to keep our materials clean and germ-free.

Thank you for considering this project and for supporting our interdisciplinary approach to STEM education. Together, we can help these students build the future they envision.
