My Project

I absolutely love how curious, creative, and resilient my students are. They come to school eager to learn, even when faced with challenges. Each of them has unique needs, and I strive to create a classroom that supports every learner.

Floor cushions and other flexible seating items will give them the comfort and freedom to focus, move, and collaborate in ways that work best for them.

The storage carts, folders, and other supplies will keep our learning environment organized and engaging, helping students feel confident and prepared. The printer, ink, laminating kit and other resources will make a daily difference in their academic growth and emotional well-being.

ALSO! Big News! I just graduated (and made the Dean’s List all 4 years), and I’m thrilled to share that I’ll have my very own classroom this school year — no more sharing! I’m beyond excited to inspire and teach my future students, but I need help getting my classroom fully stocked and ready. I’ve created this list with all the essentials I’ll need — since I’m starting from scratch, every item truly helps! If you’d like to sponsor me or my classroom, your support will mean so much. Whether it’s one item or a few, you’re helping create a warm, welcoming space where students can grow and thrive.
