Supplies for Second

Help me give my students a much needed mid-year replenishment of basic supplies!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Russo's classroom raised $907

This project is fully funded

My Project

This September I took the big leap to 2nd grade! We are the only Second grade class in the school building, so our class is a large and very diverse group, with a variety of needs.

Unfortunately, my project did not get funded over the summer so we made do with whatever left over supplies I had from previous years.

However, we are four months in and in DESPERATE need for a refresh. Students will use these supplies daily in the classroom for all subject areas. I want to be able to give them all their own supplies and begin to teach them responsibility so they will each get their own pencil pouch, crayons, and a fresh notebook. We started the year with community supplies, and it has been very hard to keep these supplies in supply with this many students!

Please help us raise funds so we can continue to be successful in Second!
