Help me give my students the classroom supplies needed for a successful year.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Gratereaux's classroom raised $165
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
As a dedicated educator, I strive to create an engaging and productive classroom environment that fosters creativity, critical thinking, and academic success. However, basic classroom supplies are often a significant challenge to maintain, and the shortage of essential materials directly impacts my students’ ability to fully engage in the learning process. With this project, I am requesting your generous support to provide much-needed supplies that will enhance our learning experience. The items requested are critical to my classroom's day-to-day operations and my students' academic growth: copy paper, color paper, ink refills, and pencils.
These supplies will have an immediate and long-term positive impact on my students.
When students have the necessary tools to complete their work, they are more likely to be motivated, participate actively, and perform better academically. Having access to quality materials allows me to tailor lessons to individual needs and foster a deeper connection to the subject matter. These supplies are the foundation for a positive, effective learning experience where every student can thrive.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
