My students come to school ready to learn and compete, but many do not have the materials they need to succeed.
The problem is our school district is high poverty.
Many students do not have the necessary supplies, resources, or support needed for success. Our school district has limited funds available to classroom teachers. DonorsChoose.org has become a staple, providing much-needed resources to ensure my students have the items needed for classroom success and beyond. Without these projects, my urban students would not have what they need to prepare for high school and college.
My Project
My students stay after school to help with tasks around my room and building. DonorsChoose has graciously provided us with classroom snacks on a variety of occasions which allows me to provide treats to my students. Many have limited funds, so this gives them something to eat at no cost.
I want to provide a drink reward too.
My students love coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. I would love to give them access to a Keurig to make drinks to go along with their snacks. This would provide them with something to hold them over until dinner and not cost them money. In our high poverty district, I am always trying to find ways to provide supplies, snacks, books, and materials to help all my students attain success. Your gift would be another tool to make sure all their needs are met!
