Help Build the Foundation: Miss Cargiles First Classroom

The Description

Hi friends!

In the next few weeks I will begin teaching in my very own classroom in Clarksdale, Mississippi. I am so excited to FINALLY begin this journey that I have dreamed about ever since I can remember! 

As exciting as this time is, one huge hurdle that students in the Mississippi Delta and other high need regions around the US face is a lack of the necessary materials that they need daily. It is extremely difficult for students to take part in activities and classwork when they do not have basic supplies.

My goal is to make sure all of my students feel cared for, loved, safe, and supported in my classroom. I will use any funds that I raise to purchase the necessary supplies to ensure my students have a classroom that is stocked full of materials and supplies. 

Here is a list of some of the materials that your generous investment will help provide for my students:

  • 2 Boxes of Paper (10 Reams) - $50
  • Kleenex (18 Pack) - $36
  • 2 Boxes of Pencils (288 Count) - $32
  • Chart Paper (2 Pack) - $27
  • 2 Packs of Dry Erase Markers (32 Count) - $22
  • Hand Sanitizer (Pack of 2) - $20
  • Crayons (125 bulk supply) -$15
  • Colored Pencils (125 bulk supply) -$25
  • Clorox Disinfecting Wipes (3 Pack) - $12
  • Pack of Highlighters (50 Count) - $10
  • Post-it Notes (24 pack) - $9
  • Folders (75)- $40

Back Up Plan

If we do not meet our goal, I will provide as many things as possible for my little babes! I will purchase supplies on my own based on the highest needs of our classroom.
