Closing the Gap

Help me give my students the odds and ends we are finding we need as the year progresses. We need the ink, laminator, pencils are running thin, and soccer needs mouth pieces.

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

Help my students achieve success! My students have the will and want to learn. Unfortunately, they do not all have the means to do so as the majority of them come from low income homes and some are even the caretakers and money makers for their families. They are strong, resilient and want to learn. If you can, please help me provide what my students need to reach their goals effectively.

My Project

These materials are going to be used to help fill the gaps of needs that came to light as the year has rolled on. We ran out of printer ink much earlier than anticipated, are going to use the laminator for posters and awards, pencils are always needed, and soccer needs mouth pieces.

These few items make a big impact in the progress of my students and athletes!

Thank you for any all support you can give to help us reach our goals for the end of the school year and upcoming season.
