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 Project

My students are amazing inner-city kids. They are always going above and beyond in the classroom, but sometimes they are struggling in class because they are hungry or just need some water. Having snacks available, like cookies, crackers, and chips, will help these students focus on their classwork, not on their hunger. This means we will have fewer behavior issues and we will also have better grades. This is a win-win situation for all of us involved with these students. Education is a precious thing and all our kids deserve to be able to learn and be focused. This will reach so many kids and I know it will make a huge impact.
