We are an inner-city school that serves a Latinx and African American student population. The majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch. Our classroom supports a range of students including English learners, students with exceptionalities, and students identified as gifted and talented.
Our students live in an underserved part of our city and reflect a diverse group of eager learners.
They come to school with grit and do not let personal hardships or inaction by our elected officials hold them back.
My Project
This project will help us support our students by providing them with essential materials.
Many of our students come to school without basic supplies such as pencils.
When students enter the classroom, we offer each of them a pencil. If a student asks to keep the pencil, we let them but otherwise collect them at the end of the period. Even though we collect pencils, we go through a lot in one week because we have more than 120 students.
Instead of having to send students to the nurse for a minor scratch, the first aid kit will allow me to give students a band-aid when they need them.
