We Are the Beginning of OUR Future!

My students need beginning of the year school supplies like paper, crayons, posters, and more.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Jefferson's classroom raised $195

My Students

In our low-income/high-poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges my students face, they are motivated and interested in learning. With the help of others, I can keep my students interested in what matters.

My students have a passion for learning.

With your help, my students will have a better opportunity to prepare for their future. We all could use more interesting and new ways to learn new skills. My students will enjoy having new material in the classroom to learn with.

My Project

All students need a good beginning of the school year. However, some feel they do not due to not having the school supplies needed. Students may feel left out while turning supplies in or feel ashamed for not having the supplies needed. With the help of other, all of my students will have the essential needed for the beginning of the school year.

With the writing paper, pencils, scissors, and crayons students will be able to perform 21st century skill needed to become essential future leaders.

With help all of my students will have paper, pencils, and crayons to start the year off. The students will also be able to get to know each other by working the "Get to know Me" poster with their new supplies.
