The Stuff My Students Need

Help me give my students the supplies they need to start with every year.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Gayle's classroom raised $373

This project is fully funded

My Project

These are the items that my students need every year and always run out of. They need these supplies as they are not provided by my school and is not on the list of school supplies. These are their center folders, card stock for the copies I need to make for their activies and basic needs like a new pencil sharpener. I work in a low income area with lots of rotating students. I average around 65 students a year that I need to provide desk tags, folders, pencil cases and more for out of pocket.

This will help me be able to provide other fun supplies like treasure box for my students.

Just looking to get a bacis stock of things I need for my classroom that I need every year.
