Can you imagine not having supplies to start the new school year?
It’s hard to imagine it isn’t it? But the numbers of those in need are staggering. This year I decided to host a virtual supply drive because the need is so great. My goal is to raise $535 which will provide supplies for an entire classroom! Your support would be greatly appreciated. We're so close and I'm so excited!
In case you're wondering the The 9 school tools in greatest demand are: pencils, crayons, colored markers, one subject notebooks, pocket folders, filler paper, composition books, dry erase markers, highlighters. Classroom Central is able to provide a set of these items for an entire class for $535. Who remembers shopping for your supplies and opening that box of new crayons for the first time? The best!
Thank you for your support! ✏️
Classroom Central fosters equity in education by providing teachers and students with the free resources they need to succeed. We serve teachers and students in nearly 200 schools across six school districts in the Charlotte Region.
Your support is more crucial this year to help students catch up. NC state test results show proficiency rates in english, math, and science plummeted in nearly every grade level throughout the pandemic, as fewer than half of K-12 students (only 45.4%) passed NC state exams. But for economically disadvantaged students, the pass rates dropped even further, to only 28.8% of NC students in need. 1 in every 2 local students live in poverty and can’t afford the basic supplies they need to catch up to their peers, let alone learn new lessons.
Donate to our virtual supply drive to help Classroom Central prepare 127,000 local students for back to school.
