Supplies for Our Classroom

Help me give my students the supplies and materials we need in the classroom every day.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Lambert's classroom raised $718

My Project

Pens, pencils, and dry erase markers are the supplies that we always seem to be short on. I have fully exhausted my yearlong stock pile just a few months into the school year. It's now at the point where I'm asking the janitors to hook me up with writing utensils that they sweep up off the floor.

Help me equip my students with the supplies they need to thrive in class every day!

The proper writing utensils seem like such a simple thing, but we just can't get enough. With this project, I'll have a caddy at each table with basic school supplies. It will hopefully cut down on the amount of writing utensils that students go through as well.
