Many things are needed to have a smooth school day.
My students are missing basic things to help them get through daily.
The headphones are essential for independent learning; as we all know, students are not the most careful with them. The cleaning wipes and hand sanitizer are to keep us all healthy and clean during this cold and flu season. These are things we run out of very frequently. We need different snacks and breakfast items because we have an extended school day. Some of my scholars show up late and miss breakfast. Children need to have their basic needs met to be able to learn.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
