My Project

Brand new students entering kindergarten for the first time is so special and exciting. I'd love to have some of the supplies at school and ready for them so they don't have to worry about it.

Pencils, glue sticks, and folders are just the beginning of what we will be using every day in kindergarten.

Having these supplies on the ready, so we can do all the projects that we want will make it possible for these kids to have a positive start to their first year in elementary school.
