We Are Proud of Our Classroom

Help me give my students a classroom where they are looking forward to coming to.

My Project

Coming back to school has not been ease for my students. During these unprecedented times, it has taken nearly two years to be together as a class (in person). School is not anywhere near what it was. Everything is so sterile.

Please help me bring warmth back this school year with beautiful classroom decorations.

A decorated classroom will bring a smile to each of my students' faces. Their social emotional health will be impacted positively. I want to make them want to tell everyone how their 8th grade was the best year ever.
