My Students

My students are amazing! They are smart, curious, kind, and respectful kids who work HARD and do their best ALWAYS! They love coming to school every day and I know no matter what this upcoming school year will look like, they will rise to the occasion and excel. But they need some help!

My Project

These school supplies will ensure that EVERY one of my learners has access to school supplies that will be used every day. Because we cannot safely share class sets, each child will need their own. I will be making individual kits for each student to use, which can easily be taken home if we go virtual. Every child will have what they need, to learn wherever they are. Whatever it takes! We will use these supplies for reading, writing, math, science, social studies, phonics, and other creative and cool projects!
