My Project
At J.H. Blackwell Elementary School, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wonderful group of fifth-grade students who have shown growth, responsibility, and positivity. As they prepare to transition to middle school, I want to celebrate their achievements and offer support. I propose creating small, meaningful gift packages for each student to inspire confidence and motivation as they move forward. These bags will contain practical and uplifting items, selected to help them navigate the challenges of middle school. During our lunch meetings, I've had the opportunity to offer advice and ensure they feel supported. This gesture will show them that their hard work has not gone unnoticed, reminding them they are capable of success as they embark on this next chapter.
