My Project

What I love most about my students is their resilience, curiosity, and kindness. Each day, they walk into our classroom ready to try again, despite the challenges they may face outside of school. They support one another, take pride in their progress, and thrive when they feel seen, safe, and valued. My students are not just learners, they are leaders, problem-solvers, and incredible human beings with limitless potential.

This project will provide the essential tools and supportive environment they need to succeed academically, socially, and emotionally.

Pens, pencils, notebooks, and bookbags will ensure that every student has what they need to participate fully and confidently in learning activities. When students don’t have to worry about missing materials, they’re free to focus on growing their skills and knowledge.

Snacks and water bottles will help keep students fueled and hydrated, especially those who may come to school without breakfast or lunch. Meeting their basic needs allows them to better engage in their learning.

Small rewards like stickers, toys, and prizes (including games and fidget tools) will help build a classroom culture of celebration and motivation. These resources will be used for positive reinforcement, academic achievement, and meeting behavioral goals, helping students feel proud of their efforts and successes.

Stress balls, fidget toys, and other sensory tools give students healthy outlets to manage anxiety, stay focused, and regulate their emotions throughout the school day. They’re especially helpful for students who benefit from movement and tactile stimulation.

Every item in this project will go directly toward creating a learning environment where students feel supported, empowered, and inspired. With your help, we’ll be able to turn our classroom into a place where all students have what they need to learn and thrive—mind, body, and heart.
