My Students
I work in west Philadelphia where the families have very limited resources to help support their children's literacy needs. Recently, I had the chance to revitalize the school library. For years, this space has not been used, and our students have been thrilled to experience a transformed space to learn, listen, and read. Students at our school come to class without pencils, paper, folders, and many times without even breakfast. JB is a K-8 school with approximately 800 students. The students I teach are excited to learn and happy to be a part of our school community. However, materials and supplies are almost non-existent and need to be purchased by the teachers. Students here love to read and need all the support they can get.
My Project
Our school Library is used by 700 students and we need to make sure it stays clean and beautiful. It is essential that we have paper towels, cleaning fluids and hand wipes to continue to help our kids take pride in their learning. By keeping our environment clean students will surely be more inspired to read and write but also feel more proud and excited about their work.
Making sure our scholars take part in our daily cleaning routines will help them care more about our library and continue to be responsible for themselves as well as our school community.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
