Today we spoke with Brittany and Danielle, two incredible special-ed teachers who need your help clearing their lists before school starts. To clear Brittany's list click here, and for Danielle click here. Below you will find more lists that need clearing. Thank you all for supporting these remarkable teachers!
Hi, my name is Kerri Boudreault and I teach 7th grade in Lynn,MA. Lynn is a large inner city district that tries to help have all we need but so many of our families can't afford all of the items needed. I am working to create an atmosphere where students feel supported, lived, and able to learn. Any help I can get in clearing my list is beyond helpful. I've been taking for 23 years and spend hundreds of dollars every year out of my own pocket. Thank you for considering my classroom.

My name is Savannah Repucci and I am going into my 5th year teaching elementary school. I am starting this year in a totally new position at a new-to-me school in Lowell, MA. I will be teaching Library and Technology and am hoping to create a space in the library where students feel welcomed, comforted and calm. Lowell is a Title 1 district, meaning it serves many students and families in low-income households, so any assistance and supplies would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Karson and Kennedy for giving teachers this platform!

First, I want to thank you so much for doing this event. To feel appreciated and respected is really all any teacher ever wants from those outside of the profession.
Even if I don't get anything on my list, just knowing that there are people out there who want to help is a wonderful gift.
My name is Katie Carter and I teach 4th grade at the Linden STEAM Academy in Malden, MA. Malden is one of the most diverse districts in the state and we work with students from so many backgrounds and cultures. It really is a true melting pot and I am so lucky! My students and I learn from each other every day.
However, this also means that we need more resources to reach our English learners, special education, and low-income students and families--resources that are rarely supplied by the school. I spend so much money each year to keep my classroom supplied with interesting books, engaging learning materials, writing supplies, etc. I wouldn't have it any other way because it's all for the students. However, having some help would be great, too. Thanks again for doing this! :)

My name is Paula Garland and I am a Kindergarten teacher in Attleboro. I have been an educator since 2001 and over the years I have seen Kindergarten change dramatically from a place of play-based learning and exploration, to mandated curriculum and academic expectations that are developmentally inappropriate for Kindergarten-age children. As a result I am constantly searching for and purchasing materials that will allow me to deliver curriculum to my students while still respecting and supporting their need for play. It would be wonderful to have some assistance in making these purchases and I would be extremely appreciative of any donations. Thank you for doing this for educators!

While listening to Karson and Kennedy this morning, I learned about your clear the list giveaway! What an amazing opportunity you are providing for our students. My name is Kristina Yakavonis and I am a K-5 elementary library paraprofessional in the Whitman Hanson Regional School District. I am hoping to fill the library with enough stem materials for all my students. I provide a fun and exciting learning environment and often have to use my own funds on these materials as I see close to 400 students each week. Any help is more than greatly appreciated!

My name is Sam and I teach in Walpole. I have moved grade levels every year I have been a teacher.
After a year in K and a year in first, this year I'll be teaching second grade! I am SO excited to be moving up to second grade as it's my dream spot. However, constantly moving grades has made it challenging to keep a diverse and inclusive classroom library. My Amazon list is entirely books to provide my students with books that interest them, represent them, and are at their level! My list is definitely long and I am not expecting to clear it, I just have no self control when it comes to books
Thank you for supporting educators!
Sam
