Adopt-A-Classroom Offers Way to Help Local Teachers in Need

 

The Adopt-A-Classroom web site offers a way to search for an underserved classroom in your community, and gives you the information needed to support them. Visit the site to choose your state, zero in on your neighborhood and find a classroom in need (public and private).

Current needs for classrooms in the Puget Sound area are plentiful. For example, a teacher in Edmonds needs basic art supplies; a classroom in Lake Forest Park desires multicultural literature for English Language Learners; an Auburn teacher seeks new maps and globes; and a Seattle biology teacher wants supplies for classroom animals, including a 100-gallon saltwater tank.
