Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

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 attend a Special Education high school located in the South Bronx, my student age ranges from 15-20 years old. My students are from an urban community that attends a Title One School. A Title One school serves students from low -income communities and receives supplemental funds to assist students' educational goals. The majority of my students have a classification of multiple disabilities which includes intellectual impairments and physical limitations; some students are English Language Learners with disabilities. All students receive speech and language therapy, occupational therapy and physical therapy. However, my students are a diverse group of learners that come to school each day eager to learn.

My Project

This project is to help support the basic everyday classroom supply needs to make sure our students are able to have a comfortable clean and healthy learning environment. Everyday we use basic supplies like disinfectant wipes and disinfectant spray to help clean and protect our students and staff against the spread of germs in our classroom environment. I'm also requesting other basic everyday needs for our classroom like plastic disposal cups which students will be able to use to retrieve water from our water fountain. Along with paper plates that we use in our classroom daily to provide students with daily snacks to give students access to have their snacks laid out on a plate. Our class also needs new chargers for our old iPads that we use everyday within our classroom. By contributing to my classroom project, you will be helping me give my students a clean and healthy learning environment.
