My Project
I am looking to purchase ten cameras for my yearbook class. By having these cameras, my students can help capture the year themselves and become more involved in choosing what goes into the 2025-2026 yearbook.
Our high school will be going into its third year as a school in Washington, DC.
The special part about this year is that we will have our first graduating class. The best way to capture the year is through pictures. The best way to have great pictures is with new cameras.
This past year, most of our yearbook pictures came from asking staff around the building for pictures that they had taken. It would be great for my students to be able to take ownership of the yearbook and capture the year through their lens.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
