'Tis The School Season

Help me give my students the materials to start their school year on the right foot.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Brennan's classroom raised $542

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

As the new school year is approaching, students will be looking forward to starting school and putting their best foot forward. It is important that students have the space and capacity to learn to the best of their ability. As my school's mission is to not only empower students but help them grow into their own identity, the classroom materials are needed to stimulate their learning.

For the materials such as pencil sharpener, pencils, pens, colored pencils, desk organizer, stapler remover, stapler, and etc.

students will be able to engage in class assignments and assessments with these materials readily available. In addition, students will not have to feel obligated to have these materials at all times. As for the materials such as sanitizing wipes, disinfectant wipes, flushable wipes, planner, pencil pouch, and dictionary, it will keep the classroom organized and well-kept. Students will be able to divulge into the work with knowing these materials will be available in the classroom.

My students are ambitious and driven to work hard in school and show the best results possible.
