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

When you think about students who strongly desire to be the best, think about my students. They inspire individuals from places that aren't always ideal in OH. Adversity is the foundation of the life they stand on, but they persevere.

My students struggle with poverty, homelessness, employment, transportation, and language barriers, but in spite of all of this, they show up to school.

I want to supply the students in my classroom with the supplies they need. This project is used for requesting pencils, crayons, glue and red pens. These are items that my students use and need on a daily basis for their assignments.
