My Project

I have students who are credit deficient. Whether it was because of attendance, frequent moving, failed classes, working... I have students that are trying to catch up on credits required to graduate with their cohort (either 2026 or 2027). Everyone deserves a chance to graduate high school and become productive. These students do want to graduate but it's not easy for them. My team wants to help support these students any way we can- and some students need some support of encouragement.

We want to give a small token of encouragement in the form a small bag filled with treats when they complete a course.

As much as our students love snacks, we are not allowed to use school funds to purchase them. Your donation would allow us to create a support that we know students will love!
