Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

This school year has been very trying for students at large. We are so close to the end and believe that the students who have ridden this year deserve a celebratory ending. We have had to move our middle schoolers into a shared elementary building. With that came a host of logistic problems, shared spaces, population gains and losses, just an unstable year for students and staff, alike. As the year ends, we'd like to celebrate the students who have managed to stick it out with us! The Tiger family needs your help!

The snacks will be used for the picnic & block party portion of the week and for the Snack and Paint party.

Students will use the canvases, paint brushes and palettes, and paint to paint a picture of their futures during the snack and paint day. The 3 legged race and tug of war games will be for the Field Day portion of the week where we'll engage in athletic competitions outside. These activities will culminate the final week of school for 7th graders.
