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
Once you step into my kindergarten class, you will meet some of the smartest, most well-mannered and eager learners ever! We had a great first semester, but unfortunately, we are running very low on basic supplies.
My students are filled with so much promise!
They come to school ready to learn despite the adversity that many of them face. The reality is many families are simply unable to afford many of the necessities we need on a daily basis.
That is why this project is so important and necessary. They have shown show much growth since the beginning of the year and this project will make it possible to continue moving forward.
My Project
School is definitely a safe place for most of our students. They not only receive fun and meaningful instruction, but they also receive two meals per day! Breakfast and lunch are guaranteed, but dinner is often uncertain. This is a sad reality for many students.
This project will provide my students with take-home snacks and water.
While it may not seem like a lot, it makes a world of difference to my students. Food is a very basic need that no child should have to ever worry about. These resources will ensure they have something to eat after they leave school.
