My Project

Students are our future. I've been teaching in Urban America for 10 years. One thing I know that I never want to have to do is drop a student's grade just because he/she cannot afford school supplies. That will never happen in my classroom.

All of my students will be afforded the same supplies in my classroom as everyone else, but sometimes I need help.

Towards the end of the year, many supplies are depleting. They have been used, broken, borrowed, sent home for use there, ect. I cannot afford to continually purchase these items on my own.

Thank you for reading over my list and contributing what you can to my wonderful classroom. Having new markers, colored pencils, pens, glue, and more will make a difference. My students will become successful because of generous donors like you!
