My students need supplies such as a chromebook, a shower caddy, batter bottles, and blue tooth speakers to prepare for college and prepare to move into a dorm room.
My students are 1st generation, underrepresented college students. Many of them are making steps venturing into an unfamiliar world. They are excited, terrified and ready to go on the next adventure.
50% of our students are on an income-based scholarship to help cover the cost of tuition.
Supplies for living will be an afterthought. They have worked hard this year to apply and get admitted to college. Thinking about the items they may need for a dorm room has not been on the radar until now.
My Project
College Signing Day is an event to celebrate our seniors making a commitment. This celebration will support their journey and provide example for underclassmen to know that the next step is possible.
These materials will be raffle prizes for students to take to college.
To enter into the raffle students only need to have made a commitment to a college, apprenticeship or the military by showing an acceptance letter or some other proof of committment. They do not need to purchase raffle tickets.
The requested materials are dorm room necessities, a shower caddy, batter bottles, blue tooth speakers, and a chromebook - items the students would no be able to purchase on their own nor consider as necessary.
The celebration will be a pep assembly that includes celebrating our seniors as well as asking underclassmen to pledge to make a committment that college/post secondary training will be in their future.
