My students need folders, pencils, a pencil sharpener, and batteries for their cameras and KNEX engines.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Our Magnet School emphasizes the respect of self and others. Our pedagogy includes discipline and high expectations, as well as activism and compassion. About 60% of our students are African American, alongside with Latino and Asian children. This situation offers unlimited opportunities to learn tolerance and team work, while discovering new perspectives.
The kids know they will be Agents of Change and follow our school motto, "Be the change you want to see in the world." However, our school and our families can't afford the resources we need to support academic knowledge and significantly improve student achievement.
My Project
It all started with an expired project: How was I going to keep my fourth graders organized without folders? Paper clips, of course! Well, my solution was not that great, and papers became wrinkled in the desks. Then our pencil sharpener gave up the ghost, and our last batteries died out as well.
Your kind donation would save the day and literally re-energize the class.
The red folders would hold all portfolio materials while the purple ones would be dedicated to math work. The pre-sharpened pencils would be reserved for testing. Children would also enjoy a new, efficient pencil sharpener to replace the old one. Finally, they would love receiving new batteries to power the KNEX cars they created, as well as using their cameras to record the event!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
