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 Students
I have selected at-risk students who have academic and/or behavioral challenges to participate in an enrichment program. These students may find school boring or overwhelming, and they may not have positive experiences at school.
So, I've teamed with four aspiring administrators (current teachers with various backgrounds and experiences) to mentor students for four months.
Students who make strides and improve their overall grade point average, attendance, and behavior will participate in a STEM fieldtrip, complete with an indoor skydiving activity.

These students will not have another opportunity like this.
