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
My students are 2-4 graders who have been diagnosed with autism. Our special education classroom is a part of a D.C. public school in the Ward 8 community. All of my students qualify for free and reduced lunch, and our school is on the list of the District's 40 most targeted schools with the highest needs.
Despite challenges at home and in the community, my students are enthusiastic, inquisitive, and thoughtful.
My students work hard daily to improve their communication and academic skills. At my school, we live by the motto, "Be the best!" and I believe my students are the best!
My Project
All of my students receive individualized interventions to meet their specific needs. These interventions are most effective when students attend school daily and are healthy! Research suggests that students who attend school regularly are more likely to achieve at higher levels than students who do not have regular attendance.
As a Title I school, we're faced with a limited budget for even the most essential items that help keep students healthy and at school.
This project will help my students stay healthy and focused on their goals by preventing illnesses through the use of hand sanitizer, soap, and tissues. My classroom will become a safer place for students by providing organization for our classroom supplies through the purchase of plastic containers and caddies. Your donation will help students stay energized throughout their day as I can have classroom snacks available when they get hungry. These supplies will help maintain a healthy classroom environment for my students, which keeps them learning year-round.
