My Project

This project is based on supplies that I know the students need daily to have academic success. I teach in a low income school district and often times it is hard to ensure that all students have what they need. We have shortened the school supply list as much as possible, but many parents still struggle. I know that if I already had the majority of some of the things that they needed, it would greatly help the parents, but more importantly, it would benefit the students. These supplies will help them reach their goals!
