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
Our school is a haven, a place where kids can work toward a common goal. Our students need somewhere safe to be, a place off of the tough, local streets. Kids at our school learn commitment, teamwork, and pride, as well as academic skills.
I am the 7-12th grade chorus teacher.
I also teach 7th grade General Music, High School Integrated Arts, and an alternative elective class for our Transition students. Our students are vibrant and love to be the center of attention. All of the students in our school receive free breakfast and lunch, and there are after-school activities that serve extra meals so kids don't go hungry.
However, our budget is non-existent. Our building is old and hasn't been updated much since it was originally built in the early 1900s.
My Project
I teach a General Music class, and I try to incorporate all sorts of Arts and Music. We analyze and illustrate lyrics, we play guitar and write in our notes, and my supplies are running very low at this point in the year.
I need a re-up of basic supplies, like crayons, colored pencils and markers.
These will be used to enhance the classwork of my students. The pencils are in case my kids lose or forget something. I have requested colored pencils in different skin tones as well, so that all of my kiddos can be represented.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
