My students are a wonderful group of young adults who are striving to learn as much as possible each day. They all have hopes and dreams of attending college after graduation. For some, they will be the first in their family to attend college. Each day, we work together using critical thinking and STEM skills to work toward their goals. My students have to overcome obstacles each day, yet they don't let any of them get them off track. My school consists of a diverse population, including military-affiliated families; 75% of our students receive free or reduced-price lunch.
My Project
This past school year has been like no other in history, as COVID-19 has reshaped the world of learning. But no matter what has been thrown at my students, they have always worked hard to overcome the obstacles and keep striving for success. One obstacle that faces a lot of my students each semester is the lack of basic school supplies and their families ability to get them. I always try to make sure that I have basic supplies on hand for my students in our classroom so that each students has access to an equal education. I am requesting dry erase markers, erasers, and board cleaner because my math students do a lot of practice problems our whiteboards, so we go through a lot of these supplies. Students try to bring in their own, but a lot of times, they don't have the financial support to purchase such items. By having these items available to all my students in the classroom, it will provide everyone a equal education. Education is so important, and I want to instill in my students the value of a good education. With your support, we will be able to help these students continue to work towards their goals and dreams of graduation. Thank you for considering to help my students through this project.
