My Project

During COVID, our classrooms were generously supplied and well-stocked with tissues, disinfecting wipes, various germ-killing sprays, and hand sanitizer. Now, four years later, those supplies are running out. While the school often supplies tissues, they are very thin and rough on delicate much-wiped noses.

I would like to request a classroom restock on thick, absorbant tissues for my classroom.

These will take us through the 2024-2025 school year. Unlike elementary school, high schools have difficulty eliciting tissues and the like from parents since students have 5-8 regular classroom teachers a year.

Thank you for thinking of my students!

Mrs. Nix
Grades 9-12
