My Project
Our children's brains are 90% developed at age 5. Kindergartens are starting their public school career at the age of 5. This is the year that we lay their foundation for learning. Leaving kindergarten knowing phonics will set them up for success for 1st grade. Having strong fine motor skills are essential for these young learners to be able to write and draw. Grades K- 2 are the years children learn to read. Grades 3 and beyond students read to learn. These items will furnish learning centers that are robust in reading, math and science.
Nearly all 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
