Supply and Snack Restock

Help me give my students snacks, project and classroom supplies, and treasure box prizes.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Gilder's classroom raised $425

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our classroom supply cabinet, student snack bin, and treasure box are in need of a restock for the new semester. My math students worked extremely hard in the first semester and my hope is ensure that they always have access to the small items that contribute to their daily success.

Students are better able to be successful in class when they don't have to worry about being hungry and have access to items that help relieve their stress or anxiety.

I want to continue to provide students with access to snacks and supplies to help them stay focused and be productive in class so that they finish out this school year strong!
