Help me build a better classroom
Hi Parents,
I want to make sure my students have the materials they need to succeed, so I just created a DonorsChoose.org classroom request. The link is below…
http://www.donorschoose.org/project/multi-function-rug-for-kindergarten/1846237/?challengeid=20618117
If anyone gives to our classroom by January 22, 2016 their donation will be doubled thanks to DonorsChoose.org. Just enter the code LIFTOFF during checkout and you'll be matched dollar for dollar (up to $100).
In return, you'll get awesome photos of your gift in action and our heartfelt thanks.
Thank you so much,
Mrs. Burks
P.S. If you know anyone who may want to help my students, please pass this along!
