FULLY FUNDED! Ms. M.'s classroom raised $530
This project is fully funded
Our student population has a large percentage of children from low income families. (51% or more on free or reduced lunch) They miss many opportunities because of this fact. This spring I would like to show them the life cycle of the butterfly. In our school, this has never been a hands on unit for our early childhood students. I would like to order the larvae and let the students watch the life cycle before their eyes. Then, we could release them into the warm spring air. We plant a large number of flower bulbs in the fall and the reaction of the butterflies to the flowers will also be an added pleasure for the children to observe.
This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
