Supplies for Success

Help me give my students supplies to start off the new school year!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Mickens's classroom raised $196

My Project

I teach some of the hardest working students! I hope to have my project funded so I can help them continue to be successful. Having the essential supplies needed to start the school year will help my sixth graders feel ready to accomplish the school year.

Students are successful when they have the supplies needed.

Please help me give them the supplies they need without having to worry about where they will get them from. They will be able to be prepared with a pencil sharpener in the room and pencils readily available. They will be able to use the scissors and glue whenever they have class projects. We will be able to use the whiteboards, markers, and erasers to do class discussions. Students will be able to make the text they read more engaging using their highlighters. I hope you consider donating to us! Thank you!
