My Project
My students come to school excited to learn every day. Art is one of the subject areas that my children enjoy the most. The art table is open every day and we enjoy letting the student show us how creative they can be with open-ended art.
My students are in need of paint, paint brushes and velcro dots to create their masterpieces.
We will use all of these items to create beautiful masterpieces and we will laminate them so the parents can keep them forever. The paint and brushes will be used to paint masterpieces and velcro dots will be used through out the room.
My students don't have the luxury of being able to buy these materials on their own because of being from low-income families. They would be so excited to have these new items available in our classroom for them to use at the art table.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
