FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Bratz's classroom raised $409

My Project

My first graders are rockstars! They are enthusiastic, energetic, happy and love to learn. Every September when the school year starts they look forward to seeing their new desks and table caddies full of new school supplies. Unfortunately we have very limited resources at our school to provide new supplies for the students. My students need pencils, erasers, crayons, colored pencils, scissors, glue sticks and dry erase markers for daily activities. Other supplies such as tape, velcro, staples, pencil sharpeners and post-its will be used by both myself and the students for different classroom organization. My students deserve to have fresh new supplies to get our school year started off right!
