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

Our school is a safe 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 learn commitment, teamwork, and pride, as well as academic skills.

I am the 7-12 Chorus teacher, as well as the assistant marching band director and the K-12 Gifted teacher.

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. Sounds like a great place for modern learners, right?

My Project

The materials I've requested may seem random, but they're going to help make our 2018-2019 school year great. The water cooler dispenser and refillable bottle will be accessible during the day. Water is a necessity when singing, and it'll be in the room, eliminating the constant need to be in and out of the room.

The computer speaker will allow me to play recordings of music for my chorus, so they can hear from their seats.

My computer doesn't currently have working speakers, so it's tough to play music for the kids. I need pens to be available for kids, when they've forgotten writing utensils. The new year is about to start. With your help, I can make it great!
