At James McHenry, we rise to the occasion every day, nurturing young minds and hearts across PK-8th grade. In the heart of West Baltimore our kids have so many needs. As you we will notice our wish list consists of mainly necessities for middle schoolers. Periods happen, accidents happen, and we have plenty of donations stuff for our smaller babes! Our school is a hub of learning, growth, and community in Baltimore, where students are inspired to dream big and achieve their goals.

My classes are filled with READING REBELS! We love reading to expand our horizons and snacking to combat food insecurity in my little country classroom. Journaling and annotating are also a super important way for my students' voices to be heard and help with any of these items will be greatly appreciated!

This is a small community where the largest employer is the school district. There are so many students that struggle with poverty and bare minimum needs, anything on the list would help!

I am a proud NYC public school teacher who's been teaching & supporting teachers now for TWENTY years in the same school building. I am so excited to have looped with my students to 4th grade in a departmentalized math classroom and continue our amazing classroom family!

My classroom is filled students who have great potential, but many face significant challenges due to their circumstances. As part of a Title 1 school district, they often struggle with limited resources, unstable home environments, and other external factors that impact their learning. Despite these obstacles, their resilience and curiosity shine through in moments of success, showing their ability to thrive when given the right support.

My classroom is my home away from home! I have the joy and honor to teach 17 kiddos this year and the year is flying by. There is lots of happiness, heartache, excitement and growth. My classroom is diverse in academic abilities as well as the home lives of the children. Our education system is very stringent and structured, but I try to provide a loving learning environment where each child can grow not only in academics but also their friendships, social skills ,love of school & learning!

I teach a regular education 3rd grade class of 18 wonderful students. We have students from all walks of life. I serve students in the gifted/talented program and ESOL program.

Anything you are able to contribute to my classroom will go directly to the students I serve and I will be so grateful. Happy Holidays!

My classroom is made up of 20 wonderful students who come from all different backgrounds! Being located so close to an air force base, i have students from all over the country.

My classroom is a place where any and every child can explore, build, create, deconstruct, reconstruct, practice, and try, try, try! My first graders are spunky, spontaneous, talented, creative, energetic and empathetic kiddos—-my list is to continue showcasing who they are and who they can grow up to be.

I am a parent in Mrs. Khan’s kindergarten room at Tavan Elementary in Phoenix. She is the most kind, patient, and creative person raised by parents who had and adopted 7 children. She was put on this earth to be a teacher in our title one school where over 60% of the kids qualify for free breakfast and lunch; most of the class can’t even afford to bring a snack let alone contribute to her wish list. She deserves a random act of kindness and light shed on the above and beyond she does daily.

This is my first year teaching second grade. I’ve been teaching in public schools for three years. I love teaching all 25 of my students. I love to bring new innovative ways to learning in my class.

I also have games on the list to provide presents to each of the students for Christmas.

My Title I school in a Minneapolis suburb is almost 65% free/reduced lunch and almost 25% multilingual learners, but a recent surge of new families has certainly increased both numbers. My 4th graders are a lively bunch with a wide range of academic, social-emotional, and economic needs. I spend roughly $1,200 each year on items ranging from winter gear and snacks to classroom supplies and enrichment activities. I’m so grateful for each gift from my list that relieves some of that strain.

I am a special education teacher in a district that has 100% free and reduced lunch population.. I have students who are dealing with various disabilities that benefit from flexible seating, learning materials, and things to help manage stress.

There is no district funding to purchase these items to support the needs of these diverse learners.
