The [Not So] Magic School Bus

Help me give my students coloring books to keep them occupied on the school bus.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Niles's classroom raised $321

This project is fully funded

My Project

My school services special needs students who often need to travel far beyond their own neighborhoods in order to attend our specialized school. They are entitled to yellow bus service, but their bus ride sometimes lasts more than an hour each way.

The lengthy commute to school is challenging for young students, and they require support and encouragement on the school bus to keep them occupied so that they may ride safely.

Please help provide my students with coloring and activity books to keep them entertained on the school bus.

Thank you!

Ms. Niles PS 192 Magnet School - Math & Science Grades 3-5
