Express Pride in Learning by Matching Bow Ties to Uniforms!

Help me give my students green bow ties to match their uniform and show they are ready for school!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jimenez's classroom raised $250

This project is fully funded

My Project

My school is a Title I school with many students in low-income households. We are changing our uniform colors. To help students be more unified wearing the same colors, we decided to add green ties to the uniform colors, rather than families going out to buy new uniforms.

Being unify wearing the same uniform is important to our students' confidence and self-esteem!!

Many students won't be able to afford adding accessories to their uniforms like these green ties. We don't want any student to be excluded in any way, so please support our school by donating to my project!! "It takes a village to raise a child."
