My Project

The last couple of years back in the classroom have been a whirlwind! We reacclimated after distance learning, have been working very hard to close the gaps from being away from the classroom, and have come so far in a short time. We have had very full classes and used a LOT of the resources in my classroom. I am hoping to be able to replenish my very low supply of construction paper and paint, as well as get a few newer and very popular books for our classroom library.

My students need construction paper, paint, and some new books for our classroom.

With a full classroom, one pack of paper and one bottle of paint is gone in the blink of an eye! I am unable to restock as needed with the limited funds provided by the district. We do art weekly, and it is a highlight for many students.

I am also hoping for a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card so that I can purchase engaging supplemental activities throughout the year.

Please consider donating to our classroom. We can do hard things! Thank you!
