My Project

Transitioning into preschool can be a big step for both children and parents alike. To ease this transition and ensure a smooth start to their educational journey, Please help me to provide them some basic academic readiness materials.

By providing transition learning backpacks to our preschoolers, we aim to foster a sense of excitement and readiness for learning while also empowering parents with the tools and information they need to actively engage in their child's educational journey.

Every year, also, I witness numerous students arriving at preschool without a water bottle in hand. It's disheartening to see them go through their day without proper hydration. That's why I urge you to join me in rallying support for our preschoolers' well-being. By donating water bottles, we can guarantee they remain hydrated and energized throughout their bustling schedules of learning and play.
