My Students

"We need joy as we need air. We need love as we need water. We need each other as we need the earth we share." -Maya Angelou

My students are from one of the largest districts in the state, but live in and attend school in a low-income neighborhood.

Resources are often limited.

My Project

Since August 2021, all students have been back in the building ready to continue the traditional in-person learning process. A mask mandate is still in effect in our district, and our students are very cooperative with wearing their masks daily. With new variants on the rise, we want to continue to follow safety protocols and minimize the spread of COVID-19.

By donating to this project, you will be assisting us with keeping our students and staff members safe from COVID and other illnesses.

Providing individually wrapped masks will make it easier to distribute them as needed without contaminating the masks with germs. The other items will be used to keep the common areas and devices clean. We are working hard to continue to keep our students in school, and your support would be greatly appreciated.
