My Project

As our grade level prepares to welcome a fourth teacher next year, we are looking for ways to stay organized and efficient. To help with this transition, we need a 4-tiered rolling cart to keep our copies and materials in one easily accessible place. Additionally, we would greatly benefit from a 4-pack of 12x12 paper holders to safely store and protect our Secret Stories—short stories that help students learn phonics. To ensure that materials and supplies remain secure, we also need baby locks for teachers’ cabinets to keep everything safe.

An organized classroom creates a calm, efficient learning environment where students can focus and thrive, while teachers can maximize instructional time and reduce stress.

To further support our classroom needs, we are requesting a heavy-duty rolling utility cart to help move heavy boxes and materials from room to room with ease. This will be especially helpful as we prepare for the upcoming school year and organize shared resources among our grade-level team. For our students, we need a stool for students to sit on when taking their photos in front of the beautiful backdrops we received from a funded DonorsChoose project last year. Having a designated seat will help keep our photo sessions organized and provide a consistent setup for capturing special moments throughout the year.
