Some of the donated items included yoga balls for kids to sit on to help with Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, or anyone who just needs some movement throughout the day.
Also, supplies for independent reading time.
Teacher Jennifer Robuck told NBC7 these items will help her kids stay focused and learn more efficiently every single day.
"We don't go into this to become rich. We do it because we love helping kids. But there's things that we want and we need for our classroom," she said as her eyes filled with tears.
The donations were made possible by the non-profit organization, Help a Teacher.
Teachers make a wish list for school supplies and then anyone can purchase the items big or small.
