Mr. H. Dillon Middle School
Dillon, SC Grades 6-8

I teach a self-contained class of special education children from the ages of 12 to 16.

My kids need something to be proud of! Fish and a fish habitat could be seen, not just by my class, but by the whole school because my students could share how they are caring for their fish.

The fish will serve a dual purpose. First, fish have a calming affect on the kids. Secondly, It will help me teach my student dedication in caring for other living things.

Your help would be greatly appreciated. We are the rural town featured in President Obama's speech.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
