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 Students

This will be my first year at my school and I feel so honored to be a part of this learning community. Our school community is one that exists to provide a world-class, equitable education that will give all students a foundation of academic excellence and character development while fostering a love of learning and passion for exploring and fulfilling their extraordinary potential as learners, leaders, and world-changers.

This project will not only support scholars enrolled in my after school program but as well as our school learning community when used for mindfulness activities.

My Project

I have the honor to create and facilitate an after school yoga program for the scholars at my school. In order to increase access for students participation, I am hoping to have mats pre-purchased for all students enrolled. By having the mats available, they will also support my school community to use for mindfulness activities. The mission and vision for our school is to not only provide students with an equitable, excellent academic experience at school but also an environment that fosters socio emotional skills. By getting this project funded, I will be able to provide yoga and mindfulness education to scholars in our after school program to help build greater self awareness, self management, and self compassion skills that will not only support them in school but in their everyday experiences.
