My Students

I teach at a school with 100% free lunch. Many students only receive food while in school. Children come from homes that at times do not have basic needs such as electricity and water. Older children have responsibilities such as watching younger siblings and taking care of the home while parents work.

Building community and future leaders are important qualities at our school.

Students have so many factors that hinder learning, issues such as abuse, drug use, neglect, poor living conditions, lack of food, and lack of clothing. Most students live in single parent homes, and the absence of one parent creates much stress that is sometimes hard to bear. Even with all these issues, students do want to learn.

My Project

Our school has started a running club this year and students are really enjoying it. What better way to end the running club school year then with a color run!

Students often do not get to participate in local color run events due to financial or transportation issues.

This powder will create a fun day that students will never forget. They will get to make memories that will last a lifetime. The sunglasses will help keep the powder out of their eyes and will also give them another memory of their color run!

These items will bring community together, create a stronger relationship between students and staff, and promote physical fitness.
