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
A typical day in my classroom runs like the Polar Express. There are surprises, magic, and trust all rolling along on an unpredictable track. My students believe in their own magic for learning new things. It's the little things that make all the difference in a classroom.
My students live in a high-poverty neighborhood with more challenges than anyone could ever know.
The students come from all different backgrounds, but most come from homes where there are economic struggles. These young children are faced with problems that are even too overwhelming for most adults to handle. They desperately want to learn and need the tools to do so.
My Project
My students' families cannot afford to purchase costumes for our school winter assembly. Please consider helping my students.
The dresses and suits will allow my students to stand out and look the part in our winter assembly.
My students are working very hard at rehearsing for our holiday assembly. They need the dresses and suits to bring it all together. This project will allow us to use our fundraising dollars on other things we need for a successful show. My want to students to look, sound, and perform at a high level.
