Supplies for A Successful School Year

Help me give my students the supplies they need for a successful school year of teaching and learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Lampton's classroom raised $791

This project is fully funded

My Project

This year, my school did not receive enough funds to cover basic instructional supplies, cleaning supplies, and incentives for our classroom. Although small, my preschool students are mighty and have a genuine love for learning. I want my classroom to continue to be a place of safety, growth, learning, and, most of all, fun.

The basic, glue sticks, markers, construction paper, and other supplies, will be used by students to create and innovate.

The teaching supplies: copy paper, anchor charts, etc. will be used as tools for learning. The cleaning supplies will be used to clean and sanitize our classroom to maintain a safe, healthy environment for my students. Finally, the snacks will be used as incentives for our students as they continue to make efforts to make positive decisions each day.

Your donations will enable us to have a clean environment that is rich in learning and positively reinforces excellence in academics and in behavior.
