o Teacher/Classroom Support (flexible seating, dry erase tables, and more!)
o Specials Support: Art, Music, PE, Literacy (art supplies, visiting authors and illustrators, musical instruments and supplies, Sound System in the MPR)
o Instructional Support/Trainings/Conferences (National Board certifications)
o Subscriptions (Newsela)
o Extracurricular Activities (Kindness Rocks supplies, Snacks and goodies for staff and teacher meetings)
o Ice Cream Social
o Family Movie Night
o Outdoor Classroom
o Junior Great Books
