My Project
In August this particular group of kindergarten started out in a world wind! But they held on and finished strong. They gave their all everyday and through all the set backs and trials they all showed growth. Imagine that 56 Kindergarteners all showed growth. As graduation approaches I want to make sure all students feel their best as they walk across the stage.
When you look your best you feel your best!
All to often children are left feeling ashamed or lest than, no fault of their own. Most of our scholars come from low income homes and purchasing new clothes isn't always possible .We want to help eliminate and ease this feeling by having caps and gowns. So that all students can walk heads high and feel powerful! Please helps us make this possible
Nearly all students from low‑income households
