The Carolina’s Largest Virtual & In Person School Supply Drive
Special thank you to our 2021 partners!
.
Thank you for helping us equip students to overcome pandemic learning loss.
CMS reports that 32% of its students failed at least one course, and recent studies show some students have lost over a year of learning due to COVID-19.
This upcoming school year is a crucial opportunity to overcome pandemic learning loss. Unfortunately, 54% of CMS students live below the poverty line, which means 1 in every 2 students will be unequipped to catch up to their peers, let alone learn new lessons.
