My Project

The t-shirts I’m requesting will foster a sense of unity, pride, and professionalism among my high school students as they host our annual STEAM Expo, a community event that attracts over 1,000 attendees. These shirts will help them feel confident and recognized as leaders, enhancing their ability to engage with diverse audiences through hands-on science, technology, engineering, art, and math activities. By visibly identifying them as key participants, the t-shirts will also encourage stronger connections between students and community members, promoting collaboration and real-world learning.

What makes my students special is their extraordinary dedication, creativity, and leadership in bringing this event to life.

They take on the responsibility of planning, organizing, and executing interactive booths that inspire curiosity and learning for all ages. My goal for this project is to support their hard work by ensuring they feel empowered and professional during the event. Through this experience, they not only deepen their understanding of STEAM subjects but also develop essential skills in communication, problem-solving, and teamwork, all while serving as role models and innovators in our community.
